I am in the early process of evaluating possibilities deploying J1939 in farm machinery (primary data logging purposes with a couple of bus requests). So for now, I only use the Linux stack on virtual busses. > Do you use Transport Protocol, Address Claiming, .... The latter is planned, as we try to integrate our bus logging facilities seamlessly. > Do you use it only on developer PC, or on production items. There will be in-house products for research purposes, both PC-based and embedded. > Mr. Hartkopp & I are very interested in feedback of other users. As we are in early stages, I can't promise anything but will keep you=20 informed, if we should finally use the Linux stack.
