The new PCAN-Explorer 6 developed by PEAK-System Technik provides a professional Windows application to users working with CAN and CAN FD networks that goes far beyond simple observation of the CAN traffic. Manual or periodic transmission of messages or entire transmission lists allows network designers or maintenance personnel to directly influence the data exchange, for example, for control purposes or simulations. (Note: license file emailed the following business day.)

PCAN-Explorer 6 can connect to several CAN and/or CAN FD field buses at the same time. Unlike previous versions, the hardware type of used CAN adapters is no longer a limiting factor.

One of the main features of PCAN-Explorer 6 is the symbolic representation of the CAN messages and their payload. With the help of symbol files, the hexadecimal information from the raw CAN/CANFD frame is transformed into an easily readable format.

A new feature of PCAN-Explorer 6 is the integration of an enhanced the trace function. In addition to recording the CAN data traffic it is now possible to also play back existing traces. With the help of user defined message filters both recorded and incoming CAN message streams can be reduced to a desired data portion. Implementation of special application requirements as well as automation of complex processes is enabled by the use of macros. The sophisticated implementation of VBScript accesses the extensive object model of PCAN-Explorer 6. Furthermore, the functionality of PCAN-Explorer 6 can be extended by a range of available add-ins. These add-ins provide additional opportunities to analyze, interpret and influence CAN data. For example, the Plotter add-in produces a graphical representation of the signals™ time course during live recording or on the basis of traces. The Instruments Panel add-in is used to select and arrange various display elements, controls, and switches. Further add-ins enable the import of third-party configurations based on the CANdb format and add the support for the J1939 protocol.

The software works with all PEAK PCAN interface products including the popular PCAN-USB Adapter or PCAN-USB FD Pro Adapter. There are four optional function upgrade add-ins available including CANdb, Plotter, Instruments Panel and J1939.
