Basic Protocols

Basic access is intended for using the operating-system CAN/CAN FD interface directly or sending unwrapped serial data to an RS485 device.

  • To control CAN or CAN FD devices through Linux canX, see SocketCAN (Linux).

  • To send raw RS485 data without a SANPO wrapper, see RS485 Raw Passthrough. Leave at least 3 ms of idle time after each command. For continuous high-rate real-time control, use the SANPO wrapped protocol.

  • To select a channel through a USB frame or connect from an SPI host, see Extended Protocols.
