Why choose RCAN over other CAN analyzers?

Unlike Vector CANoe, CANalyzer, or PCAN-View, RCAN gives you native Linux support, not an afterthought.

window

Windows Dependency

Stop rebooting or running VMs just to check a CAN bus. Native Linux support is often an afterthought in major tools.

memory

Bloated & Slow

Heavy Java or Electron apps eat your RAM. We use native libraries for maximum throughput on embedded devices.

attach_money

Prohibitively Expensive

Enterprise licenses cost thousands per seat. We offer a powerful toolset accessible to every engineer.

Core Capabilities

Professional CAN Bus Monitoring & Analysis

monitor_heart

Live CAN Monitoring

Visualize up to CAN 2.0-B traffic in real-time with microsecond precision. Auto-scroll, pause, and inspect frames without dropping packets.

input

Message Injection

Construct and send custom frames. Setup periodic transmission tables to simulate ECUs or trigger diagnostics.

translate

DBC Support

Import DBC files to automatically decode/encode raw hex data into human-readable signal values and physical units. Also have full editing and saving capabilities of DBC files.

history

Traffic Replay

Record sessions to log files and replay them back onto the bus or virtual interface for regression testing.

filter_alt

Advanced Filtering

Filter by ID, data content, or bus source. Isolate specific messages to debug noisy buses efficiently.

cable

Linux Enthusiasts

Anyone using SocketCAN who needs a GUI better than candump.

The Origin Story

RCAN Viewer was born out of frustration. As embedded Linux engineers, we were tired of switching OS environments or fighting with command-line tools just to visualize a signal.
