Interface hardware types

The following constants can be returned from canGetChannelData(), using the canCHANNELDATA_CARD_TYPE item code. They identify the hardware type for the channel specified in the call to canGetChannelData. Note that they indicate a hardware type, but not necessarily a specific product. For example, canHWTYPE_LAPCAN is returned both for LAPcan and LAPcan II. (You can use canGetChannelData to obtain the UPC/EAN code for the device. This number uniquely identifies the product.)

Constant	Hardware
canHWTYPE_NONE	Unknown or undefined
canHWTYPE_VIRTUAL	The virtual CAN bus
canHWTYPE_LAPCAN	LAPcan family
canHWTYPE_PCCAN	PCcan family
canHWTYPE_PCICAN	PCIcan family
canHWTYPE_USBCAN	USBcan
canHWTYPE_PCICAN_II	PCIcan II
canHWTYPE_USBCAN_II	USBcan II, USBcan Rugged, Kvaser Memorator
canHWTYPE_SIMULATED	Simulated CAN bus for Kvaser Creator.
canHWTYPE_ACQUISITOR	Kvaser Acquisitor
canHWTYPE_LEAF	Kvaser Leaf family

Transceiver hardware types

The following constants can be returned from canGetChannelData(), using the canCHANNELDATA_TRANS_TYPE item code. They identify the bus transceiver type for the channel specified in the call to canGetChannelData. Note that they indicate a hardware type, but not necessarily a specific circuit or product.
