Hello,

I would to know if Torque Pro can see all CAN bus frames, not just engine ones.

I want to get the frames from a specific action (push on steering wheel buttons)

Thank you

Hi

That's done at the adapter level and it doesn't really care what the frames are from (when working in monitor mode) - the adapter just dumps everything as fast as it sees it to the app (though some can be missed due to the sheer volume of message going over canbus vs what can go over bluetooth)

My adapter is OBDLink MX+ Bluetooth.

I know it's done at the adapter, but in Torque, i have to choose IDs i want to log and they are mainly for engine.

I want to log everything and try to get my buttons frames. So i want to know if i can get everything in Torque Logs

you can use putty it's an old telnet software 
and send to command to the mx+  
you will see all traffic 

but depend on how old is you car ... i would say up to 2015 the obd port is connected directly to the bus so you can see everything 
newer car have a bridge to you just see the answer to your request ... unless you hook somewhere else

i forgot the command  was AT command ATMA and some other 
was on the ondlink web site

just did a quick check in torque 
did you try torque scan /can explorer ?
and you can send command to the obdlink via the obd terminal

You probably want to use the TorqueScan plugin as that can log all the canbus frames into nice little boxes that you can then expand on and see each individual frame in realtime - the plugin is specifically crafted for exploration of these frames
