Sensors, Parameters and Graph Plot
Sensors and parameters are what most of you find the most interesting part of the software. You can monitor all the sensor values that your car reports in real-time.
The software updates the values in sequential order as fast as possible. The speed depends only on the adapter. The more expensive genuine adapters will perform faster than the cheap clone OBD2 adapters. In addition to showing the current values, minimum, average and maximum values are provided too.

Some typical sensors include engine coolant temperature, fuel pressure, intake manifold absolute pressure and air flow rate from mass air flow sensor, to list few of them. The software has support for over 126 powertain parameters (PIDs) in the range of $00 - $7F. You can pick the most suitable data reading units; both metric and imperial (English) units are available.
You can also export or save the live sensor data to a .csv file. This file can be opened with Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets, for example. These external tools allow you to create custom graphs of your data.
What is FORScan?
FORScan is a software scanner for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles, designed to work over ELM327 and J2534 Pass-Thru compatible adapters There are many OBD2 scanners, but does the FORScan somehow differ? Yes, because it is designed especially for Ford, Mazda.

There are many OBD2 scanners, but does the FORScan somehow differ? Yes, because it is designed especially for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. So supports specific features of the manufacturer protocols, making the FORScan more powerful in work with these models than any regular OBD2 scanner.

For example, FORScan can detect modules which are not visible for regular OBD2 scanners, can show you trouble codes which are never displayed by OBD2 scanners, can show you PIDs which are not supported by any OBD2 scanner, run specific tests and service procedures. In other words, FORScan can do things that regular OBD2 scanners can not do.
Main features
Mac Tools Diagnostic Scanner
Supported vehicles:
All Ford, Mazda, Lincoln, Mercury vehicles that can be addressed by supported adapters. It is 99% of models after 2000 and around 92% of models after 1996 (the year when OBD2 became a standart in USA). Note: New 2019+ Mazda 3 and CX-30 are not supported yet.
Supported adapters :
Important note: almost all of adapters sold under 'ELM327' label are 'clones' (use not original ELM327 chip). In past few years 80% of them are 'bad' clones, and unfortunately this ratio grows. 'Bad' clones are not fully compatible with original ELM327 and will not work with FORScan. FORScan uses service level protocols and requires adapters that are fully compatible with original ELM327. Other software that uses standard OBDII protocol usually work with these adapters, so people usually don't understand the problem. The problem is that service protocols are more complex than regular OBDII ones and this is why it is physically impossible to make FORScan work using these devices. We recommend to obtain either original white-label adapters listed above (Scantool OBDLink, ELS27), or look for ELM327 marked as 'Ford Mazda FORScan' etc compatible - these are usually 'good' clones equipped with HS/MS CAN switch. But 'good' clones may have other problems (for example, USB adapters cannot work faster than on 38400 bps, CAN bus errors etc).
