Hello,

I believe the CAN card you are using is manufactured by Vector, and they also provide the LabVIEW API for it, so it's not actually supported by NI. I don't have any experience using that card, so unfortunately, I can't really be of much help besides asking that you make sure you check your connections are fine, and that your cable is terminated correctly. You should try contacting Vector to see if they can help. Good luck!

Regards,

The vector card has a DLL, you can interface to it with Labview using the DLL, the documentation for the function calls should be in the user manual.

Hi Yogesh,

As explained by dhuff, there is a DLL provided by the manufacturer which you can use to interface with your device. Unfortunately dhuff posted this 2 years ago, so it's unlikely that he would be replying to this. I think the best bet would be for you to contact the manufacturer of your CAN card and see if they can provide a DLL or some driver VIs in order to communicate with it.

Good luck!

Hi Rasheel,

I have got the Vector CAN card.
I have also downloaded the vetor driver VI's. But its not working, as it accepts the CAN messages signal by signal and not a message as whole.
So, can u guid me to get a dll created in c or any other language that i can use.

Thannx in advance,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesha,

Unfortunately I am not familiar with your card and have not worked with it before, so it'd be difficult for me to guide you in doing this. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer of the card to see what you can do?

Hi Rasheel,

Yes i hav contacted the manfacturer i.e. VECTOR, i got a package of API's and it will accept signal by signal and not message.
So, i am thinking of creating a dll from a c or c++ language.
If u have ay dll rearding the same, pls send it.

Thanks,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesha,

Unfortunately I do not have experience working with the CANCardX to do that.

Hello,

I'am interesting in buying CanCardX. It is impossible to buy it as new, so I'am finding some older one.... Do you know about something?

I have a software, which works with CanCardX and due to different library it doesn't works with newer version CanCardXL. I also don't have the source code of the software....

Thanks, Jan
