Start on PowerUp:
A simulation can be configured to start once the pyCANdo device has finished booting up. This is the perfect solution if a simulation is needed for an embedded CAN device that is still under development and for which no actual hardware exists.
Create a Plug & Play replacement and start integrating your project with a substitude device.
Start cyclic
A cron job can be configured to start a pyCANdo CAN simulation at the top of the hour on weekdays, or at any other time that you might need in that context.
This is perfect for surveillance scenarios like automotive high voltage battery storage. While a simple data logger might struggle, we can perform complex vehicle simulations, trigger diagnostic jobs, and send measurements to a cloud backend.
A Grafana server, which is hosted by default on pyCANdo devices, could be used to view results on a local network immediately.
