panda¶

Open a panda adapter over USB on Linux, macOS, or Windows. PandaAdapter() uses the default bus timing; pass a PandaConfig to customize it. USB access permissions are required.

Configuration¶

The configuration is shared by the async and sync APIs. Omitted bitrate settings use 500 kbit/s nominal and 2 Mbit/s data timing, with 80% sample points.

class automotive.adapters.PandaConfig(*, bitrate: BitrateSettings | None = None)[source]¶

Configure a panda USB adapter.

Parameters:: bitrate – Reusable timing inputs. None uses Rust’s 500 kbit/s nominal and 2 Mbit/s FD data timing, with 80% sample points.

An explicit BitrateSettings starts without presets. A nominal bitrate alone selects Classic CAN. USB access permissions are required.

backend: ClassVar[str] = 'panda'¶

bitrate: BitrateSettings | None¶

property resolved_bitrate: BitrateConfig | None¶: Calculated timing for this backend, including its defaults.

Asynchronous API¶

Send, receive, and lifecycle methods are inherited from automotive.adapters.CanAdapter.

class automotive.adapters.PandaAdapter(config: PandaConfig | None = None)[source]¶

Bases: CanAdapter

Open a panda USB adapter immediately.

Parameters:: config – Reusable PandaConfig; None uses Rust defaults.

Synchronous API¶

Blocking methods are inherited from automotive.sync.adapters.CanAdapter.

class automotive.sync.adapters.PandaAdapter(config: PandaConfig | None = None)[source]¶

Bases: CanAdapter

Open a panda USB adapter immediately.

Parameters:: config – Reusable PandaConfig; None uses Rust defaults.
