Best way to configure an Isabellenhütte IVT-S?

Post by clanger9 »

So, I've got my IVT-S talking over CAN bus to an Arduino shield. All good so far.

How do people usually configure these things? There are loads of settings!

I could just manually send it the necessary config messages over CAN, but I was wondering if there's a more elegant way? Like a config file or something that can be parsed and uploaded quickly?

If there's nothing available, I can have a go at writing a configurator script to make the process a bit easier...

If you use the evtv code the menu has a configuration option that sets it up nicely. The ISA default config is weird. Big endian data and bytes flipped etc.
I'm going to need a hacksaw

Ah, thanks Damien!
Currently bogged down in flipping endian bits, so I must be doing something right. ;)

Will give the EVTV code a try...
