PCAN-Explorer 6: CAN Bus Analyzer
PCAN-Explorer 6: CAN Bus Analyzer
- PCAN-Explorer 6 can simultaneously connect to multiple CAN and CAN FD networks. Unlike previous versions, the hardware type of the CAN adapter is no longer a limiting factor.
- A key feature of this software is the symbolic representation of CAN messages and their payload. With the help of symbol files, hexadecimal information can be converted into physical quantities such as speed, pressure, temperature, and more.
- Starting from the 6th edition, the logging feature not only records message data but also allows for the playback of existing data onto the bus. Logged and imported CAN messages can be filtered based on various conditions.
- Automation of specific requirements and complex processes can be achieved through macros. Advanced VB scripts provide access to the extensive object model in PCAN-Explorer 6.
- Furthermore, the functionality of PCAN-Explorer can be extended through plugins. PEAK-System offers plugins that enhance data analysis and manipulation. The Plotter plugin visually represents live recordings or trace-based signal sequences, while the Instruments Panel plugin allows graphical representation using different instruments, controllers, and switches. Some plugins support CANdb configuration files and the J1939 protocol.

- Plug-in Introduction
- System Requirement
Order Number
Plotter plug-in
The plotter plug-in allows any number of signal sequences to be recorded and graphically represented. Signal sources CAN be received and sent CAN messages, or they can be dummy variables and results from macro calculations.
Plot Viewer: The free Windows software Plot Viewer is capable of displaying recorded files without PCAN-Explorer installed.
CANdb Import (CANdb Import) plug-in 3
In the automotive industry, CANdb format is a commonly used format for CAN bus information data description.
CANdb Import支持導入CANdb文件。對於所有不想手動轉錄自身數據庫到PCAN-Explorer的symbol格式的用戶,這是一個有用的功能。
Instrument Panel plug-in 3
The dashboard plug-in allows the graphical representation of digital and analog signals using different display instruments. The integrated input options and controllers mean that signals CAN be generated from the CAN bus, making it easy to simulate complex CAN applications.
J1939 plug-in
The SAE J1939 network protocol describes CAN bus communication for transmitting diagnostic data and control information on engineering vehicles. It contains the complete network definition in 29-bit CAN-ID (CAN 2.0B extension frame).
The J1939 plug-in in PCAN-Explorer supports all definitions generated from standard parameter sets and provides an easy way to access these parameters. A complete database with all definitions and parameters is also provided.
PCAN-Symbol Editor 6
The symbol format was developed by PEAK-System to convert the hexadecimal display of CAN data streams into a format that users can understand.
To create a symbol, you first assign a name to the individual CAN ID. In order to interpret and introduce the defined CAN data, various parameters, such as name and output format, are needed. Symbols created in this way CAN easily distribute incoming and outgoing CAN messages and ensure that CAN data is readable.
The free PCAN-Symbol Editor uses well-structured menus and ICONS to represent symbols, making it easy to create and edit symbol files.
