Can I Use Vector's CANape Software With National Instruments CAN Hardware?

Hardware: Industrial Communications>>CAN

Problem:
Can I Use Vector's CANape Software With National Instruments CAN Hardware?

Solution:
National Instruments CAN hardware is not compatible with Vector's CANape software, so you have to use Vector's CAN hardware with the CANape software. Should you want to use LabVIEW to program with this combination, you will need to call the Vector driver .dll's from LabVIEW following the steps detailed in the online LabVIEW Help article included in the Related Links section.

As an alternative, you can use National Instruments CAN driver with National Instruments CAN hardware. A link to the latest version of the NI-CAN driver is included in the Related Links section.
