This easy to use feature allows the simulation of both simple and complex CAN/LIN nodes and networks using your existing CAN/LIN analysis equipment.
The Scripting feature is integrated within the X-Analyser Standard Edition tool to provide side-by-side analysis of a CAN or LIN bus and its subsystems. With this feature and its functionality, users can see the real time behaviour and response of existing CAN hardware to simulated inputs.
X-Analyser looks after the layer 2 CAN and LIN communication, leaving the user to be able to write C/C++ or .NET scripting using a very simple Application Programming Interface, e.g.
- Initialise API
- Receive Message Handler
- Transmit Message
The benefits of X-Analyser’s Scripting feature are:
- Simulate a prototype ECU in an existing CAN/LIN system
- Simulate a CAN/LIN system for testing a prototype ECU
- Easy to Use
- Reduce development time and save money
The X-Analyser comes with simple script examples that give the user an example of how to get started in the following ways:
- Respond to messages on the CAN bus
- Setup simple panels in .NET
- Timer Triggered Transmission: Using the Windows timer as a scheduler for periodic transmission
