CAN Module Support Package

The CAN module support package enables Engee to work with CAN interfaces using library blocks CAN. The package runs on top of the subsystem Engee.Integrations and it allows you to configure interfaces, send and receive CAN messages.

Requirements

  • Configured CAN interface in the OS.

  • Interface parameters (device name and bitrate) that are used in the CAN library blocks.

  • Installed drivers/utilities for the adapter you are using (Windows).

For more information, see CAN.

Quick start

  1. Install or connect the Engee subsystem.Integrations as shown in article.

  2. Configure the CAN interface in your OS.

    • Linux: Connect a physical adapter (for example, PCAN-USB) and activate the interface:

      sudo modprobe can
sudo ip link set can0 type can bitrate 125000
sudo ip link set can0 up

    • Windows: Install the drivers for your adapter and configure the interface using proprietary utilities (for example, Kvaser CanKing or PCAN-View).

  3. Now you can use blocks from the library. CAN.
