MATLAB and J1587 Vehicle Communication Protocol

How can I use MATLAB to work with the J1587 vehicle protocol?

I have the Vehicle Network Toolbox but haven't used it yet - most of my experience is with NI XNET or devices like DPA5 and Grandview USB.

Vector has hardware for J1708/J1587, but I don't know if the Vehicle Network Toolbox supports the protocol.

Hi @ Shaun Davies,

I understand that you want to use MATLAB to work with the J1587 vehicle protocol,

MATLAB's Vehicle Network Toolbox primarily focuses on higher-layer protocols like CAN, CAN FD, J1939, and XCP messages., and it may not directly support J1587, which is a lower-layer protocol commonly used in heavy-duty vehicles.

You can also refer to the following documentation on Vehicle network toolbox if required,

Hope this Helps!

Thanks.
