Vector Socketcan Adapter

This is a small helper script to connect a Vector CAN interface or virtual bus to a socketcan interface running on linux machine using ethernet.

The https://github.com/christiansandberg/python-can-remote project is used to tunnel can messages over websockets.

Usage

install python on both machines
install python-can-remote on both machines: pip3 install python-can-remote
on the windows machine
- start vector hardware configuration
- configure CAN1 for the CANalyzer application to your interface or virtual bus
- run python python -m can_remote -c 0 -i vector
on the linux machine
- change windows ip address and socketcan interface in the python script
- run python3 can_bridge_linux.py
Gratulations! The Vector CAN Bus and your the socketcan bus are now connected.
