PCAN Lite


A version of this software package is included free of charge with all the PEAK CAN interfaces.  It includes:

PCAN-VIEW

PCAN-VIEW Screen Shot

This windows package allows the user to view messages on the CAN bus and to create messages.  It runs under Windows 95/98/ME/2K/NT/XP/Vista (USB - only 98 /2K /XP /Vista).  The transmission rate and ID length are configurable and a filter can restrict the message IDs on large systems.

The most recent data for each message ID is displayed along with the data, time since last message, count of number of instances, time since last RTR and count of RTR instances. All data is displayed in Hex and errors such as over-run and baud rate problems are reported.  

 

Messages can be sent as one-shot, repeating periodically or in response to a remote request (RTR).

PCAN-LITE code API

DOS, Windows (sys, Active X) and Linux drivers are provided.  Source code examples and libraries are included for C, VB, Pascal and Delphi to drive the CAN interface.

The API is simple: -

CAN_Init   Initialisation of the hardware, setting the speed, registration of the driver
CAN_Close Disconnect from driver
CAN_Status  Reading the driver's status information (data in buffer, overruns...)
CAN_Write Sending a CAN message (11/29 BIT ID and RTR are possible)
CAN_Read Reading a CAN message / status

 

Linux Drives are available.  For more details see:
