+## Virtual CAN device
+
+Connected to the target, here is how to load the virtual CAN device driver and
+set up a new vcan device :
+
+```bash
+modprobe vcan
+ip link add vcan0 type vcan
+ip link set vcan0 up
+```
+
+You also can named your linux CAN device like you want and if you need name it
+`can0` :
+
+```bash
+modprobe vcan
+ip link add can0 type vcan
+ip link set can0 up
+```
+
+## CAN device using the USB CAN adapter
+
+Using real connection to CAN bus of your car using the USB CAN adapter
+connected to the OBD2 connector.
+
+Once connected, launch `dmesg` command and search which device to use:
+
+```bash
+dmesg
+[...]
+[ 131.871441] usb 1-3: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci-pci
+[ 161.860504] can: controller area network core (rev 20120528 abi 9)

+[ 1872.809356] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb_8dev
+```
+
+Here device is named `can0`.
+
+This instruction assuming a speed of 500000kbps for your CAN bus, you can try
+others supported bitrate like 125000, 250000 if 500000 doesn't work:
+
+```bash
+ip link set can0 type can bitrate 500000
+ip link set can0 up
+ip link show can0
+ can0: <NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 10
+ link/can
+ can state ERROR-ACTIVE (berr-counter tx 0 rx 0) restart-ms 0
+ bitrate 500000 sample-point 0.875
+ tq 125 prop-seg 6 phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1
+ sja1000: tseg1 1..16 tseg2 1..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
+ clock 16000000
+```
+
+On a Rcar Gen3 board, you'll have your CAN device as `can1` because `can0`
+already exists as an embedded device.
+
+The instructions will be the same:
+
+```bash
+ip link set can1 type can bitrate 500000
+ip link set can1 up
+ip link show can1
+ can0: <NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 10
+ link/can
+ can state ERROR-ACTIVE (berr-counter tx 0 rx 0) restart-ms 0
+ bitrate 500000 sample-point 0.875
+ tq 125 prop-seg 6 phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1
+ sja1000: tseg1 1..16 tseg2 1..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
+ clock 16000000
+```
+
+## Rename an existing CAN device
+
+You can rename an existing CAN device using following command and doing so move
+an existing `can0` device to anything else and then use another device as `can0`
+. For a Rcar Gen3 board do the following by example:
+
+```bash
+sudo ip link set can0 down
+sudo ip link set can0 name bsp-can0
+sudo ip link set bsp-can0 up
+```
+
+Then connect your USB CAN device that will be named `can0` by default.
+
+# Configure the binding
+
+The binding reads system configuration file _/etc/dev-mapping.conf_ at start to
+map logical name from signals described in JSON file to linux devices name
+initialized by the system.
+
+Edit file _/etc/dev-mapping.conf_ and add mapping in section `CANbus-mapping`.
+
+Default binding configuration use a CAN bus named `hs` so you need to map it to
+the real one, here are some examples:
+
+* Using virtual CAN device as described in the previous chapter:
+
+```ini
+[CANbus-mapping]
+hs="vcan0"
+ls="vcan1"
+```
+
+* Using real CAN device, this example assume CAN bus traffic will be on can0.
+
+```ini
+[CANbus-mapping]
+hs="can0"
+ls="can1"
+```
+
+* On a Rcar Gen3 board there is an embedded CAN device so `can0` already exists. So you might want to use your USB CAN adapter plugged to the OBD2 connector, in this case use `can1`:
+
+```ini
+[CANbus-mapping]
+hs="can1"
+```
+
+* You can use this configuration for j1939:
+
+```ini
+[CANbus-mapping]
+hs="can0"
+ls="can1"
+j1939="can2"
+```
+
+> **CAUTION VERY IMPORTANT:** Make sure the CAN bus\(es\) you specify in your
+> configuration file match those specified in your generated source file with
+> the `CAN-config-generator`.
+
+# Run it, test it, use it.
+
+You can run the binding using **afm-util** tool, here is the classic way to go :
+
+```bash
+afm-util run low-can-service@4.0
+1
+```
+
+You can find instructions to use afm-util tool
+[here](../../reference/af-main/1-afm-daemons.html#using-afm-util),
+ as well as documentation about Application Framework.
+
+But you can't control nor interact with it because you don't know security
+token that **Application Framework** gaves it at launch.
+
+So, to test it, it is better to launch the binding manually. In the following
+example, it will use port **1234** and left empty security token for testing
+purpose:
+
+```bash
+afb-daemon --binding=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/lib/afb-low-can.so --rootdir=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/ --port=1234 --token=1
+NOTICE: binding [/usr/lib/afb/afb-dbus-binding.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
+NOTICE: binding /usr/lib/afb/afb-dbus-binding.so loaded with API prefix dbus
+NOTICE: binding [/usr/lib/afb/authLogin.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
+NOTICE: binding /usr/lib/afb/authLogin.so loaded with API prefix auth
+NOTICE: binding [/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/libs//low-can-binding.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
+NOTICE: binding /var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/libs//low-can-binding.so loaded with API prefix low-can
+NOTICE: Waiting port=1234 rootdir=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/
+NOTICE: Browser URL= http:/*localhost:1234
+```
+
+On another terminal, connect to the binding using previously installed
+**AFB Websocket CLI** tool:
+
+```bash
+afb-client-demo ws://localhost:1234/api?token=1
+```
+
+You will be on an interactive session where you can communicate directly with
+the binding API.
+
+The binding provides at this moment 2 verbs, _subscribe_ and _unsubscribe_,
+which can take argument by a JSON **event** object.
+
+The argument value is the CAN message **generic\_name** as described in the
+JSON file used to generate cpp file for the binding.
+
+To use the _**AFB Websocket CLI**_ tool, a command line will be like the
+following:
+
+```
+<api> <verb> <arguments>
+```
+
+Where:
+
+* API : _**low-can**_.
+* Verb : _**subscribe**_ or _**unsubscribe**_
+* Arguments : _**{ "event": "driver.doors.open" }**_
+
+## Subscription and unsubscription
+
+You can ask to subscribe to chosen CAN event with a call to _subscribe_ API
+verb with the CAN messages name as JSON argument.
+
+> **NOTE:** If no argument is provided, then you'll subscribe to all signals
+> at once.
+
+For example from a websocket session:
+
+```json
+low-can subscribe { "event": "doors.driver.open" }
+ON-REPLY 1:low-can/subscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success","uuid":"a18fd375-b6fa-4c0e-a1d4-9d3955975ae8"}}
+```
+
+Subscription and unsubscription can take wildcard in their _event_ value.
+
+To receive all doors events :
+
+```json
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "doors*" }
+ON-REPLY 1:low-can/subscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success","uuid":"511c872e-d7f3-4f3b-89c2-aa9a3e9fbbdb"}}
+```
+
+Then you will receive an event each time a CAN message is decoded for the event
+named _doors.driver.open_ with its received timestamp if available:
+
+```json
+ON-EVENT low-can/messages.doors.driver.open({"event":"low-can\/messages.doors.driver.open","data":{"name":"messages.doors.driver.open","value":true, "timestamp": 1505812906020023},"jtype":"afb-event"})
+```
+
+Notice that event shows you that the CAN event is named
+_messages.doors.driver.open_ but you ask for event about
+_doors.driver.open_.
+
+This is because all CAN messages or diagnostic messages are prefixed by the
+JSON parent node name, **messages** for CAN messages and
+**diagnostic\_messages** for diagnostic messages like OBD2.
+
+This will let you subscribe or unsubcribe to all signals at once, not
+recommended, and better make filter on subscribe operation based upon their type. Examples:
+
+```json
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all messages with speed in their name. Search will be make without prefix for it.
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "speed*" } --> will subscribe to all messages begin by speed in their name. Search will be make without prefix for it.
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "messages*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all CAN messages with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "messages*speed" } --> will subscribe to all CAN messages ending with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "diagnostic*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all diagnostic messages with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
+low-can subscribe { "event" : "diagnostic*speed" } --> will subscribe to all diagnostic messages ending with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
+```
+
+You can also subscribe to an event with the ID or the PGN of the message definition :
+
+
+```json
+low-can subscribe { "id" : 1568}
+low-can subscribe { "pgn" : 61442}
+```
+
+You can stop receiving event from it by unsubscribe the signal the same way you did for subscribe
+
+```json
+low-can unsubscribe { "event": "doors.driver.open" }
+ON-REPLY 2:low-can/unsubscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success"}}
+low-can unsubscribe { "event" : "doors*" }
+ON-REPLY 3:low-can/unsubscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success"}}
+```
+
+### Filtering capabilities
+
+It is possible to limits received event notifications into minimum and maximum
+boundaries as well as doing frequency thinning. This is possible using the
+argument filter with one or more of the filters available :
+
+* frequency: specify in Hertz the frequency which will be used to getting
+ notified of new CAN events for the designated signal. If, during the blocked
+ time, further changed CAN messages are received, the last valid one will be
+ transferred after the lockout with a RX_CHANGED.
+* min: Minimum value that the decoded value needs to be above to get pushed to
+ the subscribed client(s).
+* max: Maximum value that the decoded value needs to be below to get pushed to
+ the subscribed client(s)
+
+Order doesn't matter neither the number of filters chosen, you can use one, two
+or all of them at once.
+
+Usage examples :
+
+```json
+low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.engine.speed", "filter": { "frequency": 3, "min": 1250, "max": 3500}}
+low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.engine.load", "filter": { "min": 30, "max": 100}}
+low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.vehicle.speed", "filter": { "frequency": 2}}
+```
+
+## Get last signal value and list of configured signals
+
+You can also ask for a particular signal value on one shot using **get** verb, like
+this:
+
+```json
+low-can get {"event": "messages.engine.speed"}
+ON-REPLY 1:low-can/get: {"response":[{"event":"messages.engine.speed","value":0}],"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success"}}
+```
+
+> **CAUTION** Only one event could be requested.
+
+Also, if you want to know the supported CAN signals loaded by **low-can**, use
+verb **list**
+
+```json
+low-can list
+ON-REPLY 2:low-can/list: {"response":["messages.hvac.fan.speed","messages.hvac.temperature.left","messages.hvac.temperature.right","messages.hvac.temperature.average","messages.engine.speed","messages.fuel.level.low","messages.fuel.level","messages.vehicle.average.speed","messages.engine.oil.temp","messages.engine.oil.temp.high","messages.doors.boot.open","messages.doors.front_left.open","messages.doors.front_right.open","messages.doors.rear_left.open","messages.doors.rear_right.open","messages.windows.front_left.open","messages.windows.front_right.open","messages.windows.rear_left.open","messages.windows.rear_right.open","diagnostic_messages.engine.load","diagnostic_messages.engine.coolant.temperature","diagnostic_messages.fuel.pressure","diagnostic_messages.intake.manifold.pressure","diagnostic_messages.engine.speed","diagnostic_messages.vehicle.speed","diagnostic_messages.intake.air.temperature","diagnostic_messages.mass.airflow","diagnostic_messages.throttle.position","diagnostic_messages.running.time","diagnostic_messages.EGR.error","diagnostic_messages.fuel.level","diagnostic_messages.barometric.pressure","diagnostic_messages.ambient.air.temperature","diagnostic_messages.commanded.throttle.position","diagnostic_messages.ethanol.fuel.percentage","diagnostic_messages.accelerator.pedal.position","diagnostic_messages.hybrid.battery-pack.remaining.life","diagnostic_messages.engine.oil.temperature","diagnostic_messages.engine.fuel.rate","diagnostic_messages.engine.torque"],"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success","uuid":"32df712a-c7fa-4d58-b70b-06a87f03566b"}}
+```
+
+## Write on CAN buses
+
+A new capability as been introcuded to be able to write on handled CAN buses.
+Two modes could be used for that which is either specifying the CAN bus and a
+*RAW* CAN message either by specifying a defined signal and its value.
+
+Examples:
+
+```json
+# Write a raw can frame to the CAN id 0x620
+low-can write { "bus_name": "hs", "frame": { "can_id": 1568, "can_dlc":
+8, "can_data": [ 255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255]} }
+# Write a signal's value.
+low-can write { "signal_name": "engine.speed", "signal_value": 1256}
+```
+
+To be able to use write capability, you need to add the permission
+ ```urn:AGL:permission::platform:can:write``` to your package configuration
+ file that need to write on CAN bus through **low-can** api.
+
+Then in order to write on bus, your app needs to call verb **auth**
+before calling **write**, to raise its **LOA**, Level Of Assurance,
+which controls usage of verb **write**.
+
+## Using CAN utils to monitor CAN activity
+
+You can watch CAN traffic and send custom CAN messages using can-utils
+preinstalled on AGL target.
+
+To watch watch going on a CAN bus use:
+
+```bash
+candump can0
+```
+
+Or for an USB CAN adapter connected to porter board:
+
+```bash
+candump can1
+```
+
+Send a custom message:
+
+```bash
+cansend can0 ID#DDDDAAAATTTTAAAA
+```
+
+You can also replay a previously dumped CAN logfiles. These logfiles can be
+found in _can_samples_ directory under Git repository. Following examples use
+a real trip from an Auris Toyota car.
+
+Trace has been recorded from a CAN device `can0` so you have to map it to the
+correct one you use for your tests.
+
+Replay on a virtual CAN device `vcan0`:
+
+```bash
+canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests vcan0=can0
+```
+
+Replay on a CAN device `can0`:
+
+```bash
+canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests can0
+```
+
+Replay on a CAN device `can1` (porter by example):
+
+```bash
+canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests can1=can0
+```
