Hello,

we would need a little more information ... and clarifications.


Which operating system and platform are you using?
Which version of PCAN-Basic are you using?
Are you using another API like PCAN-ISO-TP, PCAN-UDS, or PCAN-OBDII?
What do you mean with "PCAN box"? do you mean a PCAN-USB ...

I think we have spotted the problem. I can give you a TEST-Version of the Virtual PCAN-Gateway service, so that you can ...

Hello,

The ipc application initialisation will then give the correct error code "0x1400 no driver" (and routes in the Virtual PCAN-Gateway would be yellow, of course).
If the PCAN Ethernet Gateway comes online after the startup of the IPC, the Virtual PCAN-Gateway will never refresh and detect ...

Hello,

could you please give us more information? Since sending 29-bit messages with PCAN-View (i.e. using the Virtual Gateway communication) works, I supposes you are programming your own routes. Could you please post code of how you are sending i.e. configuring the 29-bit messages?


Here an ...
