Requirements¶
This document explains the requirements to use Phoenix 6.
Supported Devices¶
Phoenix 6 supports the following devices:
TalonFX (Falcon 500, Kraken X60)
CAN Bus Requirements¶
Phoenix 6 devices are supported on the below CAN bus adapters.
roboRIO
On Linux systems, any SocketCAN capable adapter will work, but the CANivore is highly recommended. CANivore offers additional functionality over other SocketCAN adapters. On Windows systems, you will need a CANivore to communicate with hardware.
System Requirements¶
Phoenix 6 supports a plethora of languages and operating systems. The table found below details which languages are supported on what platforms.
