CANalyzer is analysis software from Vector Informatik GmbH . The data traffic in serial bus systems is analyzed using the development software, which is widely used by vehicle and control unit suppliers in particular. Relevant bus systems are CAN , LIN , FlexRay , Ethernet and MOST as well as CAN-based protocols such as SAE J1939 , CANopen , ARINC 825 and many others.

description

In 1992, Vector offered the world's first CAN software, the CANalyzer. Since then, CANalyzer has been continuously developed and is considered the world's leading analysis system for CAN buses. In addition to the main application area of ​​electronic networking in automobiles, the CANalyzer is used in many other industries such as rail vehicles, commercial vehicles, special vehicles, avionics, medical technology and many more.

CANalyzer supports new approaches in the automotive industry for networking with IP architectures.

In addition to the pure bus monitoring function, the CANalyzer contains many stimulation and analysis functions to trigger and analyze message traffic and data content. These are put together in a measurement setup. The functionality can be adapted and expanded by the user. This is achieved through an integrated compiling programming language.

The data are displayed and evaluated both raw and symbolically. For this purpose, the DBC data format was developed by Vector in 1992, which has become the de facto standard for the exchange of CAN descriptions in the automotive sector. Correspondingly, the relevant standards are supported for the other bus systems, for example FIBEX for FlexRay, LDF for LIN, EDS / DCF / XDD for CANopen.

Versions

Version 1.0 was released in 1992. The current version of CANalyzer is 12.0 (as of August 2019).

CANalyzer is available in different versions. This relates to the range of functions (fundamental, expert, professional), to supported bus systems (CAN, FlexRay, ...) and to supported higher protocols (SAE J1939, CANopen, ...).
