CanBus Driver For Lookout

I'm looking into making a Lookout Application to work with a Danfoss controller.  I've been told it uses the CanBus network for all communication.  Is there a CanBus driver for Lookout 6.0.2?  I didn't see one in the program, but I figured I'd ask just to be sure.  Thanks

Hello,
NI Lookout supports communication over several industrial communication protocols, but we do not currently have native support for CAN.
You may, however, be able to author a separate translation application to convert the CAN messages into a protocol that Lookout is compatible with, including ModBus and OPC. There are also third-party OPC servers that can publish CAN data that you may wish to consider, but of which I am not able to make a recommendation.

To request that we add CAN support to Lookout, please don't hesitate to send us Product Feedback at www.ni.com/contact and let our Lookout R & D group know about your needs directly.
