Kvaser interfaces support all CAN higher layer protocols.  The hardware and SDK are designed to work at the raw CAN frame level, therefore you can use Kvaser’s CAN hardware with any higher layer protocol, such as J1939, CanOpen, DeviceNet, NMEA 2000, etc.

As long as it is CAN based, yes. The CAN standard defines the hardware (“the physical layer” – there are several) and the communication on a basic level (“the data link layer”). In order to manage the communication within a system, a higher layer protocol (HLP) is commonly required. Our interfaces work on the raw […]

By channel we mean the actual physical CAN channel. A handle can be seen as a virtual bus extension, that you need to open with a canOpenChannel() call to programmatically access the channel. You can have many handles open to the same channel.

You have to go BusOff prior changing the bitrate.
