PEAK Usb not detected on Ubuntu 18.04LTS

Post by ginson » Mon 9. May 2022, 10:24

Hi,

I am using PEAK USB 6 channel on a dual boot Ubuntu 18.04LTS.
I am using peak-linux-driver-8.14.0 and PCAN-Basic_Linux-4.6.0 API
The output of command

Code: Select all

grep PEAK_ /boot/config- uname -r 
shows following output
CONFIG_CAN_PEAK_PCIEFD=m
CONFIG_CAN_PEAK_PCI=m
CONFIG_CAN_PEAK_PCIEC=y
CONFIG_CAN_PEAK_PCMCIA=m
CONFIG_CAN_PEAK_USB=m

But command

Code: Select all

lsmod | grep ^peak
returns nothing.

Installation of PEAK drivers all done as per the README.txt given in the driver zip file. There was no errors while installation peak driver and API's
Please let me know, if I am missing something.

Hi,

please post the output of "cat /proc/pcan" and "ip a". Did you supply the PCAN-USB X6 with the the necessary supply voltage?

regards

Michael

Hi,

looks like you did not load the driver after the build process with "sudo modprobe pcan"

regards

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the prompt response.

I didnot supply the necessary voltage. After supplying the voltage it worked.

Cheers!!
