http://www.kvaser.com/download/. The Kvaser Memorator Config Tool will assist in:
•
Configuration of the CAN controller (e.g. bit rate and filters).
•
Configuration of the trigger conditions (including up to 32 bit signals from
databases).
•
Configuration of filter for messages to be stored.
•
Configuration of t programs to be started.
•
Downloading configuration via USB.
•
Extracting logged messages via USB or SD card.
•
Converting files logged in Kvaser Memorator Pro 5xHS to several different

The t programming language
The Kvaser t programming language is event oriented and modeled after C. It can
be used to customize the behavior of the Kvaser Memorator Pro 5xHS and other
Kvaser t capable devices.
A t program is invoked via hooks, which are entry points that are executed at the
occurrence of certain events. These events can be, for example, the arrival of
specific CAN messages, external input or a timer expiration.
Like any Kvaser CAN interface, the Kvaser Memorator Pro 5xHS can be used via
CANlib on a PC. The addition of t programs running directly on the Kvaser
Memorator Pro 5xHS makes it possible to react much quicker to CAN bus events
(for example to speed up file transfer protocols or to simulate missing hardware).
The Kvaser Memorator Pro 5xHS can also operate completely autonomously.
For more information, see the Kvaser t Programming Language guide that can be
downloaded at http://www.kvaser.com/download/.

Additional software and documentation
The Kvaser CANlib SDK includes everything you need in order to develop software
for the Kvaser CAN hardware. It contains full documentation and many sample
programs, written in C, C++, C#, Delphi, Python and Visual Basic. All Kvaser CAN
interface hardware share a common software API. Programs written for one device
type will run without modification on other device types.
The latest versions of documentation, software and drivers can be downloaded for
free at http://www.kvaser.com/download/.
