ESP32RET

Reverse Engineering Tool running on ESP32 based hardware. Supports both EVTV ESP32 and Macchina A0

Requirements:

You will need the following to be able to compile the run this project:

• Arduino IDE Tested on 1.8.13
• Arduino-ESP32 - Allows for programming the ESP32 with the Arduino IDE
• esp32_can - A unified CAN library that supports the built-in CAN plus MCP2515 and MCP2517FD
• can_common - Common structures and functionality for CAN libraries

PLEASE NOTE: The Macchina A0 uses a WRover ESP32 module which includes PSRAM. But, do NOT use the WRover board in the Arduino IDE nor try to enable PSRAM. Doing so causes a fatal crash bug.

The EVTV board has no PSRAM anyway.

This program is larger than the default partitioning scheme. You will need to use a larger scheme. The recommended way to do this: Tools -> Partition Scheme -> Minimal SPIFFS

All libraries belong in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Arduino\hardware\esp32\libraries (Windows) or ~/Arduino/hardware/esp32/libraries (Linux/Mac).

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. However, do note that CAN buses should have a resistance from CAN_H to CAN_L of 60 ohms. This is affected by placing a 120 ohm resistor on both sides of the bus. If the bus resistance is not fairly close to 60 ohms then you may run into trouble.

The firmware is a work in progress. What works:

• CAN0 / CAN1 reading and writing
• Preferences are saved and loaded
• Text console is active (configuration and CAN capture display)
• Can connect as a GVRET device with SavvyCAN
• LAWICEL support (somewhat tested. Still experimental)
• Bluetooth works to create an ELM327 compatible interface (tested with Torque app)

What does not work:

• Digital and Analog I/O
