OpenXC + Pi ?

[TJ Marbois]

Hi

Anyone here tried getting OpenXC kit working with a RaspberryPi ? I was considering building a kit to capture / graph data on a Pi.

Wanted to see if anyone else was doing so as well.

cheers

Hi TJ,

I haven't done it myself, but you should be able to run the openxc-python command line tools to grab data over USB on a Pi.

Zac

yea thanks - Im going to try this in a bit and see what I can discover.

cheers

I'm in the process of doing this as well TJ. I'll let you know if I get it working and you have questions! xD

[TJ Marbois]

Thanks Jack!

Good luck on that - it seems like it should be easy enough… but you never know!  Look forwards to hearing your progress.

cheers

Hello Tj,

I have started but not tried hard enough yet.  I am using a Model B, which is a bit limited.

I have thought of getting the 3, and then using Android.

I've managed to use the Pi 3's onboard Bluetooth to connect to the OpenXC VI (Ford). Just a heads up, I believe you need to do a dist-upgrade to make the onboard Bluetooth work on the Pi 3. I've been able to receive data using the Python read command. Oddly, a bunch of the commands return a missing payload format error, even though I have specified it in my firmware fabfile and attempted to use the set payload format command in Python. I'll comment back if I find out why.. hahah

hey thanks!

Ill eventually get around to testing this… hopefully by then more of it will be solved.  Im awaiting the IOS Sdk as well.

Good luck with your investigations!

cheers

I see this error frequently as well. When I work from the command line I append "--format json" to every command and this always works as a fix. Would be nice to track down this bug though. 

[Jack Van Hoecke]

I do the same haha. The issue is, in Python you can't just append --format json anywhere. I'm new to Python though so it could very well be something else I'm doing. I haven't done enough testing/fiddling to come to anything conclusive hahah.

Hey,

I was able to read and write on the Pi and I thought I might include you guys if you're still interested in it.

Attached is a firmware for an OpenXC Ford VI that is raw unfiltered data at one second (unless changed, then immediate), and writable to both buses which are at 500kHz and 125kHz respectively.

The attached python file runs on the Pi but should run on any environment with 2.7.X. It connects over Bluetooth to the device. I made two global lists, one is an up to date CAN messages list, the other is for all the other callbacks.

To write raw data, simply type the following in the python terminal after running the module: vi.write_raw("message ID in hex","payload in hex"). An example would be: vi.write_raw("0x3da","0x1234567812345678").

I don't think I had issues after a certain point but something worth mentioning is that you can input the "payload_format" when creating the vi object (as seen in the code).

I am also not a Python programmer, so it's not gorgeous but hopefully it gets you jump started :)

[Thomas Marbois]

Very cool of you ! Thanks a ton... will look at this when I start 

Cheers
