Does PCAN-view support CAN playback?

[bjonesElectra]

My company is trying to find a solution to be able to send CANFD data frames from an imported (pre-recorded) file such as CSV from a Windows PC to an embedded target. We are looking at CAN USB FD Adapter (GC-CAN-USB-FD) product. Can this hardware adapter and PCAN-view software allow us to import real vehicle CAN data from a file to be "played back" over the local CAN network?

Thank you for any support!

Hi,

PCAN-View doesn't offer to replay trace files. It could only generate trace files. For replaying CAN-FD trace files, the PCAN-Explorer 6 software could be used:

Thanks, Michael!

Does PCAN-Explorer 6 software support CAN USB FD Adapter (GC-CAN-USB-FD) hardware?

[PEAK-Support]

Our Software Support only our CAN-Hardware or OEM Hardware. Gridconnect is a sales partner in the US and they sell also our CAN-USB Interfaces - also the PCAN-USB FD.
Please contact them directly what their part number "GC-CAN-USB-FD" exactly is - as far as we know they also sell a cheap serial port based CAN-FD Interface - which could definitally not work with our Tools.
If it is a PEAK-System Interface, yes it will work with PE6 - as all PEAK-System CAN Interface / Adapters for the PC works with our Tools.

Hi Michael,

Thank you again for the support! This is the exact Grid Connect product that we are looking to purchase https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078VQ37YY/ref=emc_b_5_t and we want to ensure that the PCAN-Explorer 6 (PE6) software will work with this.

thanks,
Brandon

Hi,

to be sure it is a original PCAN hardware, please buy directly from GridConenct and not from a third party reseller.

Hi Michael,

Ok, going directly to Grid Connect I found the following potential products:

https://www.gridconnect.com/collections ... can-usb-fd

https://www.gridconnect.com/collections ... -interface

Do both of these products support PE6 software for CAN playback?

thanks,
Brandon

Hi Brandon,

no, only the first link is a PCAN Hardware (PCAN-USB FD), which will work with PCAN-Explorer 6. The second link is not a PCAN hardware and will not work with PCAN-Explorer 6. Please contact GridConnect for more details.
