Serial port emulation over CAN bus. Working on Raspberry Pi with MCP2515 module. Main goal - emulate serial port to use tiny external modules together with Klipper controller for 3D-printers https://github.com/KevinOConnor/klipper
Adding CAN bus to Raspberry Pi completely described here https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=141052
Only Base Frame format (CAN 2.0 B) implemented. Master node periodically sends frame with ID 0x321 and zero length as UUID request. Slave node responds to this frame with ID 0x323, containing 6 bytes of unique serial number. Master will check local dictionary and responds with ID 0x322, containig port number. After receiving port number slave node should ignore next UUID requests and accepts only frames with id 0x17F+(2 x PortNumber)
After assigning port to slave, Emulator creates /tmp/ttyCANxx node emulating serial port.
git clone [email protected]:Delsian/CanSerial.git
cd CanSerial
cmake .
make
./canserial
If you get "Socket init error: xxx" - check your CAN configuration.
$ sudo cp canserial.service /lib/systemd/system/canserial.service
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable canserial.service
$ sudo systemctl start canserial.service
