\title Using SystecCAN Plugin
\brief Overview of how to use the SystecCAN plugin.
The SystecCAN plugin encapsulates the low-level API to work with the
\l{http://www.systec-electronic.com/}{SYS TEC} CAN adapters.
This plugin requires the SYS TEC CAN device drivers and the usbcan32.dll
(usbcan64.dll for 64 bit builds).
\section1 Creating CAN Bus Devices
At first it is necessary to check that QCanBus provides the desired plugin:
\code
if (QCanBus::instance()->plugins().contains(QStringLiteral("systeccan"))) {
// plugin available
}
\endcode
Where \e systeccan is the plugin name.
Next, a connection to a specific interface can be established:
\code
QString errorString;
QCanBusDevice *device = QCanBus::instance()->createDevice(
QStringLiteral("systeccan"), QStringLiteral("can0.0"), &errorString);
if (!device) {
// Error handling goes here
qDebug << errorString;
} else {
device->connectDevice();
}
\endcode
Where, \e can0.0 is the active CAN interface name (interface 0, channel 0).
The SystecCAN plugin supports 64 USB interfaces (so called modules) from
\e can0.0 to \e can63.1. Each module can have one or two channels, they can
be accessed by the index canX.0 or canX.1. The \l {QCanBus::}{availableDevices()}
method returns a list of currently available devices.
\note SYS TEC also provides 8 or 16 channel CAN interfaces. These units
consist of an USB hub and multiple two-channel modules internally.
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 at least
one new frame is available for reading:
\code
QCanBusFrame frame = device->readFrame();
\endcode
SystecCAN 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: 10000, 20000, 50000, 100000, 125000, 250000, 500000, 800000,
and 1000000. Note that this configuration parameter can only be adjusted
while the QCanBusDevice is not connected.
\row
\li QCanBusDevice::ReceiveOwnKey
\li The reception of CAN frames on the same channel that was sending the CAN frame
is disabled by default. If this option is enabled, the therefore received frames
are marked with QCanBusFrame::hasLocalEcho()
\endtable
SystecCAN supports the following additional functions:
\list
\li QCanBusDevice::resetController()
\li QCanBusDevice::busStatus()
\endlist
