- Message reception with a maximum resolution of 100 µs
- Manual and periodic transmission of messages with a maximum resolution of 1 ms
- Transmission of CAN messages in response to remote frames (only with CAN 2.0 A/B)
- Messages can be grouped as transmit lists, stored and loaded as desired, e.g. in order to emulate CAN nodes
- Multiple flexible filters can be configured and, for example, assigned to the transmit/receive window or to various different tracers
- Logging of the CAN data traffic along with the errors that have occurred as an option
- Playback of trace files with optional loop function
- Operation of multiple tracers at the same time

- Filtering of the messages for logging through message filters
- Recording of CAN data traffic directly to files or to the RAM (in linear, dynamic, or circular buffer mode)
- Playback of logged CAN messages directly from files or the buffer
- Storing of the logged data to readable text files or CSV files for further processing in Excel or similar
- Enhanced processing of huge trace files compared to PCAN-Explorer version 5
- Subsequent examination of the logged data in the buffer via different symbol files
- Clear and readable representation of CAN messages based on the symbol format from PEAK-System:
- Easy allocation of CAN messages by assigning alphanumeric names
- Bit-exact division of the data into variables for assigning names, data type, etc.
- Comfortable symbol file creation with the supplied Windows® software PCAN-Symbol Editor or with the integrated text editor
- User-friendly real-time monitoring of several signals via the Watch window
- Graphical display of up to 4 signals with a simple line writer (Line Writer Add-in)
- Automation of small tasks or complex processes with macros or VBScript like for example:
- Test procedures for the implementation or development of CAN systems
- Send an e-mail if a temperature is exceeded
- Start an action when a particular message is received
- Open an Excel sheet when an event occurs and save the data in individual cells
- Calculate variables from the data of incoming CAN messages
- Creation of macros and scripts with the integrated text editor
- Assignment of function keys to individual macros
- Access with VBScript to almost all program elements via the PCAN-Explorer object model
- VBScript macros also run in the background even without the PCAN-Explorer interface
