The OpenXC vehicle interface (VI) firmware runs on an Arduino-compatible microcontroller connected to one or more CAN buses. It receives either all CAN messages or a filtered subset, performs any unit conversion or factoring required and outputs a generic version to a USB interface.
For more documentation, see the vehicle interface section on the OpenXC website or the vehicle interface documentation.
For the full build instructions, see the documentation.
The basics to compile the firmware from source:
Clone the vi-firmware repository (don't download the ZIP file, it won't work):
$ git clone https://github.com/openxc/vi-firmware
Run the bootstrap.sh script:
$ cd vi-firmware vi-firmware $ script/bootstrap.sh
Copy the example "CAN passthrough" implementation of signals.h to
signals.cpp:
vi-firmware $ cp signals.cpp.example-passthrough signals.cpp
Compile it! By default this will compile for the chipKIT vehicle interface:
vi-firmware $ make
