This app, ELM327 Identifier, helps determine the true version of your ELM327 adapter. Many counterfeit adapters falsely claim compatibility. The app tests nearly all available AT commands, comparing results to the official ELM327 datasheet. This quickly reveals whether your adapter's claimed specifications are accurate or if it's a fake. The app checks 114 AT commands, omitting those requiring a car connection and specific protocols.
To use it, power on your ELM327 adapter, connect it to your Android device, launch the app, and tap "CONNECT." The scan begins automatically, displaying the results. You can save the results for later review. Note: A counterfeit adapter doesn't automatically mean it's unusable with your apps.
Key benefits include:
- Authentic ELM327 Version Identification: Uncovers the true ELM327 version, crucial because many Chinese clones misrepresent compatibility.
- Supported AT Command Information: Tests nearly all AT commands, verifying compatibility against the official datasheet.
- Broad Firmware Version Support: Supports firmware versions up to v2 and experimental versions, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of ELM327 devices.
- Fast Compatibility Check: Rapidly determines if the adapter's claims are accurate. (Note: Commands needing a specific car connection are excluded for consistent results).
- Clear Scan Results and Details: Provides a visual display of supported commands (white bars indicate expected support) and detailed results, savable to your device's internal storage.
- Repeat Scans: The "RESCAN" button lets you run the test again.
