ESD CAN Library¶
In the first release of Apollo software, ESD PCIe CAN is supported out of the box – please refer to Apollo 1.0 Hardware and System Installation Guide for more information. However, you MUST obtain ESD’s CAN library software from ESD Electronics to compile and use it in Apollo software stack.
After/when you purchase CAN card from ESD Electronics, please contact support@esd.eu to obtain the supporting software package for Linux. The CAN card to use with the IPC is ESD CAN-PCIe/402. For more information about the CAN-PCIe/402, see the ESD CAN-PCIe/402 Product Page
After unpacking the software package, please find and copy the following files to the specific sub-directories (under this directory):
Copy ntcan.h to include/
Copy 64-bit libntcan.so.4.0.1 to lib/
Do the following to add the necessary symbolic links:
cd ./lib/; ln -s libntcan.so.4.0.1 libntcan.so.4; ln -s libntcan.so.4.0.1 libntcan.so.4.0
