Lawicel manufacture a range of low-cost but very powerful tools which products which support the popular CANbus protocol....

CANUSB is a very small dongle that plugs into any PC USB Port and gives an instant CAN connectivity. This means it can be treated by software as a standard COM Port (serial RS232 port) which eliminates the need for any extra drivers or by installing a direct driver DLL for faster communications and higher CAN bus loads. Sending and receiving can be done in standard ASCII format.

CAN232 is a simple low cost tool to get connected to the CANbus via a standard RS232 port found on PC's, Embedded systems etc. It is driver independent, since all commands are ASCII commands. The CAN232 is the choice for small embedded Linux, DOS or Windows platforms where cost is important and now other alternative is availible more than a RS232 port. Free sample programs with source code in VB, Delphi, C & C++.
