Virtual Gateway Maximum Ethernet Gateway Connections

[apbradley]

Hi, we are creating a system in which we want to use up to 16 hardware Ethernet Gateways modules to transmit to an application connected to a single Virtual PCAN Gateway on a central server. Is there a limit to the number of hardware Ethernet Gateways or routes that the Virtual PCAN Gateway can handle?

The current release (24.10.2019 - Ver. 1.3.1) PC Software PCAN-Virtual Gateway could handle only up to 16 Routes. So it is depending if you need a uni-directional (16 Channels) or bi-directional communication (8 Channels).

But we will release the Version 4.x soon which support up to 64 Routes, which offer you to use 32 Bidirectional real CAN Channels - so 16 Gateways could be uses with both Channels per Device in bi-directional mode. If you need a Pre Release, please send a small note to support[at]peak-system.com.
