This paper describes the implementation of a CAN server that acts as a CAN tool to a client. It can be used to monitor, observe and send messages to a distant CAN network over IEEE802.11b (Wave-LAN). The CAN server is controlled by one or several clients that can connect to it by TCP/IP. It is possible to send and receive CAN messages over Internet from a MATLAB environment since the client software is written in Java. The CAN server collects CAN messages and stores them into a ring buffer. The messages in the ring buffer are classified by their identifier and stored into a database. The CAN tool has been used in a demonstrative application example that consist of a remotely controlled wheelchair. In the example the wheelchair was programmed to run in a square. The positions obtained by odometric CAN messages are compared with the position from the navigation system onboard the wheelchair.
