A Ruby library for LAWICEL serial CAN bus adapters
A simple implementation of the LAWICEL ASCII protocol for LAWICEL serial CAN bus adapters, tested with CANUSB though it should work with minimal or null effort on CAN232 adapters (both available at http://www.can232.com).
This class of devices is covered by the slcan driver in the Linux kernel, this Ruby implementation however does not require such driver and allows full interaction with the adapters as long as the serial port is available.
initialization:
require 'serial_can_bus'
slcan = SerialCanBus.new('/dev/ttyUSB0', 19200, 125000)
transmission of standard CAN frame with identifier 0x7ff and 2 bytes of data:
slcan.transmit_frame(:standard, 0x7ff, 2, 0xbeef)
sniff first 20 frames:
slcan.while_receiving(20) do |kind, identifier, length, data|
puts "kind #{kind} identifier #{identifier.to_s(16)} data #{data.unpack('H*')}"
end
get adapter status:
puts slcan.issue_command(:status_flag).dump
bit-struct, serialport
