\title Using PeakCAN Backend
\brief Overview of how to use the PeakCAN backend.
The PeakCAN backend encapsulates the low-level API to work with the
\l{http://www.peak-system.com/}{PEAK-System} CAN adapters.
\section1 Creating CAN Bus Devices
At first it is necessary to check that QCanBus provides the desired backend:
\code
if (QCanBus::instance()->plugins().contains(QStringLiteral("peakcan"))) {
// backend available
}
\endcode
Where \e peakcan is the backend name.
Next, a connection to a specific interface can be established:
\code
QCanBusDevice *device = QCanBus::instance()->createDevice(
QStringLiteral("peakcan"), QStringLiteral("usbbus1"));
device->connectDevice();
\endcode
Where \e usbbus1 is the active CAN interface name. The PeakCAN backend supports
eight USB interfaces from \e usbbus1 to \e usbbus8 and eight PCI interfaces from
\e pcibus1 to \e pcibus8.
\note Only the USB and PCI adapters are currently supported by this backend.
The device is now open for writing and reading CAN frames:
\code
QCanBusFrame frame;
frame.setFrameId(8);
QByteArray payload("A36E");
frame.setPayload(payload);
device->writeFrame(frame);
\endcode
The reading can be done using the \l {QCanBusDevice::}{readFrame()} method. The
\l {QCanBusDevice::}{framesReceived()} signal is emitted when a new frame is available
for reading:
\code
QCanBusFrame frame = device->readFrame();
\endcode
PeakCAN supports the following configurations that can be controlled through
\l {QCanBusDevice::}{setConfigurationParameter()}:
\table
\header
\li Configuration parameter key
\li Description
\row
\li QCanBusDevice::BitRateKey
\li Determines the bit rate of the CAN bus connection. The following bit rates
are supported: 5000, 10000, 20000, 33000, 47000, 50000, 83000, 95000,
100000, 125000, 250000, 500000, 800000, 1000000. Note that this configuration
parameter can only be adjusted while the QCanBusDevice is not connected.
\endtable
