you need to use the Linux version, because you are using a Linux FTDI driver (it seems to be already built into the Chromebook).
In your terminal cd to the directory where the pscanloader is.
Type
chmod 755 pscanloader
./pscanloader

right now it cannot.
I am currently working on a CANbus stack for pscan, and hopefully it will be the next update.
This would allow pscan to connect to a newer vehicle in the same way as a generic EOBD/OBD2 scanner.
I think it will take a few weeks to get it done.

I suggest that you select only the oxygen sensor voltage so that it updates much faster, which will help you to see if it's fluctuating.
I'm not 100% sure but yes, I think 0.49V might be a default value, so what you get if there is no sensor present.

there are four versions of the pscanloader file for Linux. Which one did you download?

16 pin OBD2 male : 15 pin D-Sub : purpose
1 : 8 : 5AS data
2 : 7
3 : 6 : 5AS data
4 & 5 : 4 : Chassis
6 : 3
7: 2 : MEMS2J K line
8 : 1
9 : 15
10 : 14
11 : 13
12 : 12
13 : 11
14: 10
15: 9
16 : 5 : +12V

Please be careful because if you get something wrong you can damage the pscan.  The most important thing to be careful of is where +12V is connected. +12V to the wrong pin could destroy it.  Also earthing through a data line instead of the Chassis pin (for example if earth is missing) can blow out a protection diode.

Petrol Freelanders have a single wire from the ECU to the fan system, and it uses some sort of pulse width modulation to vary the speed of the fans (it's not just on or off).
On the petrol ones if the wire between ECU and fan system is disconnected the fans come on full speed.
I don't know if the L series is the same

pscan doesn't currently have that feature. I don't know whether the factory tool does. I'll have to look into it

Thanks. I did clear fault codes 2 or three times.
I’m new to pscan but I hope glitches are not part of the package.
pscan has had bugs and probably still does.  As we find them I will fix them as best as I can.  It's just like any other complex software product in that way.

in theory it's possible, but 16 pin OBD sockets are easily available and not expensive.
Why not just use a normal OBD socket?

I don't have a MacBook new enough to run Monterey.
If it is an M chip MacBook, then no it's not likely to work, as pscan has only been compiled for Intel Macs.
If it's an Intel MacBook then I think it's best to post your question here: https://www.the-t-bar.com/forum/pscan-uk-diagnostic-tool-forum/98125-mac-book-pro-big-sur
