GEV-RET

Generalized Electric Vehicle Reverse Engineering Tool

A project turn the GEVCU hardware into a specialized reverse engineering tool.

The project now builds in the Arduino IDE. So, use it to compile, send the firmware to the Arduino, and monitor serial. It all works very nicely.

You will need the following to have any hope of compiling and running the firmware:

  • The GEVCU hardware (version 4 hardware or newer) or CANDue hardware
  • Arduino IDE 1.5.4 (use other versions at your own risk)
  • due_can - In my repos
  • due_wire - once again, in my repos
  • SdFat - I have also forked this into my repos

All libraries belong in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Arduino\libraries (Windows) or ~/Arduino/libraries (Linux/Mac). You will need to remove -master or any other postfixes. Your library folders should be named as above.

The canbus is supposed to be terminated on both ends of the bus. This should not be a problem as this firmware will be used to reverse engineer existing buses.
