LinX-Manager Fielbus Access Online Documentation

LinX Manager Fieldbus Access is a plugin written for Qt Creator. The plugin allows the user access data available on CAN buses according to J1939 or CANopen protocols from a QML or Widget based Qt application. With the help of LinX Manager Data Engine updates projects with necessary code and classes to communicate with Fieldbus Access runtime via Data Engine.

Signals can then be visualized directly in a QML or Widget application thanks to generated code or processed further in the backend.

Aside from auto generating the communication layers it also generates the configuration file for the Fieldbus Access runtime, which takes care of the communication with the CAN-buses.

For full details and guides on how to proceed with creating different CAN bus signals and run the Qt applications on the various CCpilot displays head to the online documentation here LinX Manager Fieldbus Access
