Load configuration with PPCan-Editor after firmware flash

Post by robyag » Thu 17. Feb 2022, 11:08

Hi,

I have a question about Peak Router Pro.
I know there are two ways to configure a Peak Router Pro: Creating a configuration using PPCan-Editor, or flashing the firmware with Pcan-Flash.

My question is:
After a firmware flash using Pcan-flash, is there any way to load a configuration again with PPCan-Editor?
Or it won't because the flash process deletes something internal in the Peak Router so that you can't configure the device with PPCan-Editor anymore?

Thanks.

Hello,

You have already received an answer to your request via email,
please check your email inbox.

To quote the email:
Using PEAK-Flash you may upload -any- software to the device,
regardless whether it's your own (self -written) or our official PEAK software (v1.15.1 at the moment).

But:
Only the official PEAK software is capable of being configured with PPCAN-Editor,
as it is mainly a collection of loose modules that need to be linked together to fulfil a specific function.
This "interconnecting" is what the configuration/the editor does.

Your self-written software will -not- support this concept,
instead it straightly does what you programmed ...
Please do not contact us via the forum if the same request was already
send via email, this only creates additional work for the Support-Team.

Best Regards

Marvin
