# Port: — ID of the CAN interface (port) to be used for sending and receiving messages

Details

How to get the port ID depends on the OS and the driver/adapter.:

Linux (for example, SocketCAN interface):

  1. View the list of CAN interfaces with the command:

    ip a

    The output will have interfaces like can0, can1 and so on. These are the values that are specified in the Port parameter.

  2. Before using it, make sure that the interface is loaded and activated. An example for can0:

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

Windows:

  1. Install the drivers for the adapter you are using.

  2. Open the utility provided with the driver and see the list of available ports.:

    • For Kvaser — Kvaser CanKing devices;

    • For PEAK — PCAN-View equipment.

      The names of the ports can look like PCAN_USBBUS1, PCAN_USBBUS2 etc.

Before using the unit, make sure that the selected CAN interface is correctly configured and active in the system.
