# Kickstart guide to can-j1939 on linux
## Prepare using VCAN
You may skip this step entirely if you have a functional
**can0** bus on your system.
Load module, when *vcan* is not in-kernel
modprobe vcan
Create a virtual can0 device and start the device
ip link add can0 type vcan
ip link set can0 up
## First steps with j1939
Use [testj1939](testj1939.c)
When *can-j1939* is compiled as module, opening a socket will load it,
__or__ you can load it manually
modprobe can-j1939
Most of the subsequent examples will use 2 sockets programs (in 2 terminals).
One will use CAN_J1939 sockets using *testj1939*,
and the other will use CAN_RAW sockets using cansend+candump.
testj1939 can be told to print the used API calls by adding **-v** program argument.
### receive without source address
Do in terminal 1
./testj1939 -r can0:
Send raw CAN in terminal 2
cansend can0 1823ff40#0123
You should have this output in terminal 1
40 02300: 01 23
This means, from NAME 0, SA 40, PGN 02300 was received,
with 2 databytes, *01* & *02*.
now emit this CAN message:
cansend can0 18234140#0123
In J1939, this means that ECU 0x40 sends directly to ECU 0x41
Since we did not bind to address 0x41, this traffic
is not meant for us and *testj1939* does not receive it.
### Use source address
Binding a can-j1939 socket to a source address will register
allow you to send packets.
./testj1939 can0:0x80
Your system had, for a small moment, source address 0x80 assigned.
### receive with source address
Terminal 1:
./testj1939 -r can0:0x80
Terminal 2:
cansend can0 18238040#0123
Will emit this output
40 02300: 01 23
This is because the traffic had destination address __0x80__ .
### send
Open in terminal 1:
candump -L can0
And to these test in another terminal
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x3ffff
This produces **1BFFFF80#0123456789ABCDEF** on CAN.
### Multiple source addresses on 1 CAN device
./testj1939 -s can0:0x90,0x3ffff
produces **1BFFFF90#0123456789ABCDEF** ,
### Use PDU1 PGN
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x12345
emits **1923FF80#0123456789ABCDEF** .
Note that the real PGN is **0x12300**, and destination address is **0xff**.
### Use destination address info
The destination field may be set during sendto().
*testj1939* implements that like this
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x12345 can0:0x40
emits **19234080#0123456789ABCDEF** .
The destination CAN iface __must__ always match the source CAN iface.
Specifing one during bind is therefore sufficient.
./testj1939 -s can0:,0x12300 :0x40
emits the very same.
### Emit different PGNs using the same socket
The PGN is provided in both __bind( *sockname* )__ and
__sendto( *peername* )__ , and only one is used.
*peername* PGN has highest precedence.
For broadcasted transmissions
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x12300 :,0x32100
emits **1B21FF80#0123456789ABCDEF** rather than 1923FF80#012345678ABCDEF
Desitination specific transmissions
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x12300 :0x40,0x32100
emits **1B214080#0123456789ABCDEF** .
It makes sometimes sense to omit the PGN in __bind( *sockname* )__ .
### Larger packets
J1939 transparently switches to *Transport Protocol* when packets
do not fit into single CAN packets.
./testj1939 -s20 can0:0x80 :,0x12300
emits:
18ECFF80#20140003FF002301
18EBFF80#010123456789ABCD
18EBFF80#02EF0123456789AB
18EBFF80#03CDEF01234567
The fragments for broadcasted *Transport Protocol* are seperated
__50ms__ from each other.
Destination specific *Transport Protocol* applies flow control
and may emit CAN packets much faster.
First assign 0x90 to the local system.
This becomes important because the kernel must interact in the
transport protocol sessions before the complete packet is delivered.
./testj1939 can0:0x90 -r &
Now test:
./testj1939 -s20 can0:0x80 :0x90,0x12300
emits:
18EC9080#1014000303002301
18EC8090#110301FFFF002301
18EB9080#010123456789ABCD
18EB9080#02EF0123456789AB
18EB9080#03CDEF01234567
18EC8090#13140003FF002301
The flow control causes a bit overhead.
This overhead scales very good for larger J1939 packets.

### Change priority of J1939 packets
./testj1939 -s can0:0x80,0x0100
./testj1939 -s -p3 can0:0x80,0x0200
emits
1801FF80#0123456789ABCDEF
0C02FF80#0123456789ABCDEF
