If you're working with CAN or CAN FD networks and want a flexible, visual, and scriptable way to analyze traffic, this webinar is for you.
Whether you're new to PCAN Explorer or evaluating tools for diagnostics, simulation, or development, this session gives you a hands-on tour of PCAN Explorer 6, the robust CAN analysis platform from PEAK-System.
Led by Uwe Wilhelm, Senior Engineer at PEAK-System, and hosted by Grid Connect, this webinar covers everything from setting up your first project to decoding signals and automating tests with scripting. You’ll also see how optional add-ins like the plotter, user panel, and J1939 protocol support can transform how you work with CAN data.
