IXXAT VCI is a Windows driver and programming interface from IXXAT Automation GmbH that provides a unified, high-performance way to access the company’s PC interfaces for CAN, CAN FD, and LIN networks. It abstracts hardware specifics across USB, PCI/PCIe, and embedded form factors, so applications can send and receive frames, configure bit rates and filters, and manage multiple channels with precise time stamps. VCI offers stable 32/64-bit operation on modern Windows versions and supports concurrent, multi-client access. Developers can integrate it quickly using the provided C/C++ and .NET APIs, sample code, and documentation, and it serves as a foundation for higher-layer protocol solutions such as CANopen or J1939. Designed for industrial and automotive use cases, VCI enables reliable communication and simplifies application portability across different IXXAT interfaces.
VCI is developed by IXXAT Automation GmbH. The most popular versions of this product among our users are: 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 3.0 and 3.1. The names of program executable files are FirmwareUpdater.exe, MiniMonV3.exe, MinMon32.exe and VCICFG.exe.
