ECI and SocketCAN drivers for Ixxat CAN interfaces
and IDL drivers for Ixxat INpact

Drivers


For Ixxat CAN interfaces

ECI driver for Linux
The ECI driver allows to use the Ixxat CAN interfaces under Linux and supports CAN2.0A/B as well as ISO CAN FD and non-ISO CAN FD. Supported Linux Kernel versions are 2.6.x, 3.x.x or 4.x.x. (32 or 64 bit). We recommend to use Kernel version 3.x.x or 4.x.x. The driver is tested using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and openSUSE Linux with Linux kernel version 4.4.0


SocketCAN Driver for Linux

With the free SocketCAN driver, HMS provides a vendor-independent API for the latest Ixxat CAN interfaces. The driver supports all CAN/CAN-FD channels on the interfaces as well as several, even different, Ixxat CAN/CAN-FD interfaces simultaneous.

For Ixxat INpact

IDL driver for Linux

The INpact Driver Library (IDL) allows to use the Ixxat INpact under Linux and supports all protocols offered for the INpact (EtherCAT, PROFINET,...). The driver packages are available as:

  • Linux IDL Driver for x86
  • Linux IDL Driver for x86 64 Bit
  • Linux IDL Driver for ARM (requires Hardware FPU)
