Edge Gateway CAN Module Functions
Description: The Edge Gateway supports an optional CAN module that is mounted inside the Gateway itself. The CAN module is
enumerated to the OS as a USB device as USB HID device to the Linux kernel driver layer on the Wind River Linux host. There are
no native application software on the factory installed OS image to perform CAN protocol for this device.
The CAN module presence on the Gateway can be identified by issuing “lsusb” command in the Linux prompt and looking for
“Microchip Technology Inc.,” based device.
For CAN communication protocols and software API references a separate set of references and articles will be provided outside of
this document.
