CAN-Gateway Configurator V6 for CAN@net NT and CANbridge NT
LUA ADK
The Ixxat Lua ADK is a firmware extension that is layered over the standard firmware and based on the standard
Lua 5.3.5 distribution. By using the Lua ADK for handling and processing of communication data the functionality
of the standard application can be expanded. Lua is a powerful, lightweight scripting language for use within the
application.
The Lua ADK supports two operational modes:
• running the Lua script on the target device in autonomous mode (Use of Lua ADK set to enabled in target
mode)
• running the Lua script on the host PC for debugging purposes, communicating with the target device via USB
(Use of Lua ADK set to enabled in remote mode)
For information about the Ixxat Lua ADK see User Manual CAN@net NT/CANbridge NT Lua ADK on the product
support pages on www.ixxat.com/support-bridges-gateways.
Syslog
If the use of syslog is set to enabled, the Syslog configuration is activated. For information how to configure
Syslog see Syslog Configuration, p.
MQTT
If the use of MQTT is set to enabled, the configuration for MQTT Broker settings and MQTT/CAN Bridging is
activated. For information how to configure MQTT see
Remote Access
If Remote access is enabled, a device that is used in Bridge mode can be accessed in ASCII Gateway mode
simultaneously. The CAN controller must be configured and started by the Bridge mode configuration in the
CAN-Gateway Configurator.
The CAN controller is controlled via the Bridge and all ASCII commands related to the control are blocked,
this means the CAN controller cannot be stopped or modified via ASCII commands. Cyclic messages cannot be
defined via ASCII commands in remote access. CAN messages can be sent and received via the ASCII protocol. To
receive CAN messages on the host side via ASCII commands, the messages must be added in the Mapping table
of the Bridge configuration. The ASCII device commands can also be used in Remote access.
For more information about the ASCII Interface mode and the commands see
CAN@net NT 100/200/420 Generic Protocol for Gateway
• If Remote access is enabled, open Remote Access in the configuration tree and configure the Protocol line
ending, the IP port, and the transport protocol if needed.
Expert Mode
If the checkbox Expert Mode is activated, the configuration of the master TCP connection can be optimized for
different use cases and the behavior in case of CAN message loss can be configured.
Possible configuration optimizations for TCP/IP with CAN@net NT:
• for maximum throughput (default)
• for minimized latency
• for internet connections
• for slow internet connections
Possible behavior in case of CAN message loss:
