+# Add a CAN device in CANdevStudio
+

+***Device Layer*** section and drop it on the grid workspace. Right-Click on it
+and open its ***Properties***. Here you have to set the ***backend*** and the
+***interface*** name you'll want to use. Backend available are:
+

+- systeccan: CAN bus backend using the SYS TEC CAN adapters.
+- peakcan: CAN bus plugin using the PEAK CAN adapters.
+- tinycan: CAN bus plugin using the MHS CAN adapters.
+- vectorcan: CAN bus plugin using the Vector CAN adapters.
+
+More details about CANdevStudio CAN bus support [here](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.10/qtcanbus-backends.html).
+
