Prerequisites

or if you'd like to build can4eve yourself:

Installation

  1. Download the software for your platform from Downloads

or build the software yourself

Starting

Run the software with java -jar can4eve.jar or can4eve (If you built the software yourself: cd can4eve/obdii/release before this command) The first screen should show one of the Panels shown below.

Configuring your OBD connection

Select the menu Settings/OBDII

  • Network connection: Select the deviceType Network, set the hostname and port
  • USB connection: Select the deviceType USB, select the serialDevice via the "..." button near the serialDevice, set the baudRate (only click direct if you are setting the baudrate via a different means e.g. stty)
  • Bluetooth connection: Not directly supported as of 2017-07 - you might want to e.g. use the OBDLink_LX#Forwarding the OBDII Adapter via TCP/IP or forward via can4eve options
  • Simulator connection: Select the deviceType simulator

Click "testConnection". The result should be e.g.: ConnectionOK2017-07-11.png

Now you should be able to use the Menu OBD/Start or OBD/Start withLog.

Troubleshooting

Connection refused

If you get the message "Connection failed", "ConnectException: Connection refused(Connection refused)". You might want to check the hostname and port settings. Also you can tryout the connection e.g. on a command line.

See e.g. VGate_ICar_2#Testing

NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/event/EventHandler

If you get the following error message on OpenJDK:

java -jar can4eve.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/event/EventHandler
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:763)
...
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javafx.event.EventHandler
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424)
        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:335)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357)

You might want to follow the following instructions:

That is

sudo apt-get install openjfx

fix for Raspberry PI

If on a Raspberry PI you get the message java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/application/Application>

get the SDK from: http://gluonhq.com/products/mobile/javafxports/get/

cd /usr/local/src
sudo wget http://download.gluonhq.com/javafxports/embedded/armv6hf-sdk-8.60.9.zip
sudo unzip armv6hf-sdk-8.60.9.zip
cd /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-8-oracle-arm32-vfp-hflt/jre/lib/ext
sudo ln -s /usr/local/src/armv6hf-sdk/rt/lib/arm .
sudo ln -s /usr/local/src/armv6hf-sdk/rt/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar .
sudo ln -s /usr/local/src/armv6hf-sdk/lib/javafx-mx.jar .
sudo ln -s /usr/local/src/armv6hf-sdk/rt/lib/jfxswt.jar .

java.net.BindException: Address already in use (Bind failed)

There is probably another instance of can4eve already running. In rare cases another application might use the same port as can4eve.
