By using a Virtual CAN Bus, we separate the control task from other tasks. The distributed embedded control system can be developed using standard CAN Controllers and transceivers in a traditional way with well proven tools.
Other tasks such as encryption, transmitter authentication, re-flashing, etc. can be developed by experts in these fields and carried out by using other protocols. With modern technology, the different tasks can run in parallel and simultaneously communicate on the same physical layer.
It is a great advantage to separate the control problems from other problems. The control problem can be solved once and for all by the control experts and other problems by experts in their respective technology fields.

Kvaser PCIEcan 2xCAN v3 is a small, yet advanced, CAN multi-channel real time CAN interface that handles transmission and reception of standard and extended CAN messages on the bus with a high time stamp precision. The Kvaser PCIEcan 2xCAN v3 is compatible with applications that use Kvaser‘s CANlib.
PCIE & Mini PCI Express: The worldwide component shortage provided the catalyst for the progressive redesign of products to ensure component and product availability. Kvaser has secured component stock for all soon-to-release products and where possible, is replacing existing models in a way that ensures full backwards compatibility – same EAN, same software etc. The PCIE & Mini PCI Express series required more significant component redesign and will be replaced as follows:
00866-3 PCIEcan HS v2 01433-6 PCIEcan 1xCAN v3
00861-8 PCIEcan 2xHS v2 01432-9 PCIEcan 2xCAN v3
00683-6 PCIEcan 4xHS 01414-5 PCIEcan 4xCAN v2
01038-3 Mini PCI Express HS v2 01420-6 Mini PCI Express 1xCAN v3
01029-1 Mini PCI Express 2xHS v2 01417-6 Mini PCI Express 2xCAN v3
Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers.
100 % compatible with applications written for other Kvaser CAN hardware with Kvaser CANlib.
High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit /s.
Fully compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000⃝R and DeviceNet.
Supports silent mode for analysis tools – listen to the bus without interfering.
Supports simultaneous usage of multiple Kvaser interfaces.
Low profile board, includes low and high profile brackets.
Software
Documentation, software and drivers can be downloaded for free at www.kvaser.com/downloads.
Kvaser CANLIB SDK is a free resource that includes everything you need to develop software for the Kvaser CAN interfaces. Includes full documentation and many
program samples, written in C, C , C#, Delphi, and Visual Basic.
All Kvaser CAN interface boards share a common software API. Programs written for one interface type will run without modifications on the other interface types!
Windows drivers for all our CAN hardware.
Please check release notes for information on which Windows versions are supported.
It also contain a driver for the virtual CAN bus.
Kvaser SocketCAN Drivers for Linux. For using generic SocketCAN API. Only needed if current kernel version of SocketCAN does not recognize new hardware.
A free of charge, general-purpose CAN bus monitor. Works with all CAN interfaces from Kvaser. Windows 2000 or later is recommended but Windows 98 should also work.
Software development kit - everything you need to develop software for the Kvaser CAN and LIN interfaces. Link libraries, header files, sample programs, Microsoft Visual Basic and Borland Delphi components, documentation, and more. Note: you need to download and install the appropriate device drivers separately.
