Can-can CAN bus interface
The Can-can CAN bus interface is a simple but general purpose interface for the Raspberry Pi and OpenWRT.
The interface has two modes of operation.
- Host mode
- Standalone mode
Host mode
In host mode a Can-can interface connects to a host device which may be an RPi or OpenWRT router where the interface acts as a bridge between the host and the CAN bus.
Standalone mode
In this mode, the Can-can interface is a dedicated CAN bus device in it's own right. This is placed on the bus to perform special purpose duties such as taking measurements and logging events etc.
In this mode a host mode device is also required for communication.
