Title: CAN bus sniffing Post by: Lechuga on December 27, 2019, 02:35:43 AM Forgive me if this has already been discussed but I have become interested in this topic as a means of data logging without the expense of a pro data logger.
I realise it will be hard work to translate each CAN message, but I reckon with the right SW it can be done. I would like to get some feedback on the amount of interest in going down this path. There are already some open source projects such as "https://github.com/CaringCaribou/caringcaribou/ (https://github.com/CaringCaribou/caringcaribou/)" which aims to test the vulnerabilities of existing vehicle CAN buses in order to make them more secure. And "https://github.com/Hive13/CANiBUS (https://github.com/Hive13/CANiBUS)" to (if I understood correctly) scan, identify and sort messages on a central server. Cheers!

It got me very far (all the way in fact) in my endeavors.
Title: Re: CAN bus sniffing Post by: Lechuga on December 29, 2019, 01:03:15 AM Thanks woj! I hadn't seen your response until now. I have been using linux actively since 1995 and I have a number of different can interfaces I can try. I'll start my dev work and hopefully others will chip in.
Title: Re: CAN bus sniffing Post by: ruan on December 31, 2019, 05:29:25 AM For cheaps on Linux, I can recommend getting yourself a CANtact interface: https://linklayer.github.io/cantact/
I had some PCBs done by OSH Park, ordered up the components and made one myself, flashed it with a gs_usb compatible firmware which works much better in my opinion, (the gs_usb kmod is in most modern Linux kernels - https://github.com/candle-usb/candleLight_fw). Works great, super quick, never had a single problem with it.
