PCAN-Explorer 7 is a comprehensive, professional software suite for working with CAN CC (Classic), CAN FD, and CAN XL buses. By connecting to multiple buses simultaneously, users gain deep access to real-time traffic monitoring, message tracing, and physical signal analysis.
Key Capabilities:
- Active Bus Control: Directly influence the bus network via manual or periodic message transmission for rapid control simulation and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Symbolic Translation: Instantly converts hexadecimal CAN IDs and payload data into a readable format using PEAK-System Symbol files or compatible third-party databases.
- Multi-Bus Recording: Capture and playback synchronized data traffic across several independent buses simultaneously. In-depth analysis can be performed frame-by-frame or utilizing diagnostic breakpoints.
- Advanced Message Filtering: Filter incoming messages and active trace recordings dynamically using versatile engineering criteria.
- Process Automation: Automate complex diagnostic processes using simple macros, advanced Python or VBScript scripts, and real-time callback functions. The entire PCAN-Explorer 7 object model is fully accessible via script interfaces.
Expandable Add-Ins:
Extend the platform's core functionalities using modular add-ins from PEAK-System to upgrade data presentation, utilize native CANdb / ARXML data definitions, or add full validation support for heavy-duty J1939 standards.
