Using python-can for LIN Bus with Vector VN1611

[ReFlo]

Hello at all :-)
I have a VN1611 interface that supports CAN and LIN. At the moment the case occurred that I want to use this interface for monitor the LIN bus communication. Additionally I would like to be master or slave in the BUS and receive and send messages. In the documentations I see that LIN is somehow supported ( XL_BUS_TYPE_LIN ). My question is if the LIN bus is really supported. What functionalities are there and how do I set it up properly.
I am new in this field and would appreciate some help.

Thank you !!

Hello, python-can only supports CAN. However, the python-can VectorBus might be a good starting point to implement your own LIN class. Check the Vector XL Driver Library docs.

Have you found a way to communicate over LIN?

I used a different hardware and used their code 😄
