You post this in the PCAN-UDS Section, but use as header Labview and talk about PCAN_USB.Lib.... very confusing....

- UDS could be used with up to 16 independent CAN Interfaces
- Labiew for UDS API is not supporte by PEAK-System - create your own LabView based on the DLL
- PCAN_USB.Lib is from the outdated PCAN-Light API (replaced over 10 years ago by the PCAN-Basic API)

Can you send me 4 PCAN-Basic.lib or can you help me how to do that in labview? Separately all pcan works, but when I try in parallel only one pcan is active.

As i wrote, the PCAN_USB.lib is a lib for the old PCAN-Light Software API (outdated and no longer available)
This API support only ONE channel. You need to use the new PCAN-Basic API.
Send us a e-mail to support[at]peak-system.com with a original picture of your used CAN Interface and we could help to find a solution

(ADMIN: we will move this topic to PCAN-Light API)
