Kvaser CAN Interface Support from Vehicle Network Toolbox

Use Kvaser CAN devices to stream CAN bus data into MATLAB and Simulink.

Vehicle Network Toolbox™ supports Kvaser CAN interface hardware using the latest version of the Kvaser CANLib driver library. The table below lists the hardware supported by the latest release of Vehicle Network Toolbox.

With the Kvaser CAN interface support, you can perform the following tasks in MATLAB or Simulink:

  • Transmit and receive CAN and XCP messages
  • Pack and unpack CAN messages for simplified decoding and encoding
  • Filter, log, and replay CAN messages
  • Use .dbc database and A2L description files
  • Find and display CAN interface device settings

In MATLAB and Simulink, you can transmit and receive CAN messages using the CAN FD standard if the CAN interface hardware supports CAN FD.

Kvaser hardware can be used on both Windows and Linux platforms. To use Kvaser hardware on Windows, you must install the Windows driver from the Kvaser website. To use Kvaser hardware on Linux platform, you must install the Linux drivers from the Kvaser web site. Kvaser also supports the use of SocketCAN interface on Linux platform.
