Hello everyone,

Is it somehow possible to run a diagnostic tool like Op-Com using a Peak-CAN USB adapter? I would like to read out my error codes and other data. Since I have a Peak-CAN adapter lying around, it would be great if there was a way to do this.

Best regards,

I don't think that will work. While you can certainly read and write CAN messages with your adapter, without understanding the diagnostic protocol, those "raw" messages won't be very useful to you.
It would be similar to opening an image file with a text editor. You can't really make sense of the zeros, ones, and cryptic characters at first, even though everything that makes up the image is encoded within them.
