In this view supports sending CAN/CANFD/LIN frames,but in the current version of the software, Lin only supports the master node and does not support the slave node.

1. CAN Transmit​

1.1 Transmit list​

The transmit list contains messages to be edited, each message has the following properties:

Send: This is a button controlling the current message transmission. The style of this button depends on the trigger type of the current message:

  • Manal transmit message: Each click on this button will trigger one CAN message transmission.
  • Periodic transmit message: The first click on this button will start the cyclic transmission of this message. The transmit button will then switch to a Stop button: The next click on this stop button will stop the cyclic transmission of the current message.

Trigger: Message transmission type:

  • Manual: One click on the Send button will trigger one CAN message transmission
  • Periodic: Click the Send button to transmit periodic CAN message.

Name: The name of the message, if this message is added from CAN database.

Id: Identifier of CAN message.

Channel: The channel number of CAN message.

Type: CAN frame type, can be the one of the following 6 types:

  • CAN_Data: Classical CAN data frame with standard identifier
  • CAN_Remote: Classical CAN remote frame with standard identifer
  • CAN_FD: FD frame with standard identifier
  • Extended_CAN_Data: Classical CAN data frame with extended identifier
  • Extended_CAN_Remote: Classical CAN remote frame with extended identifier
  • Extended_CAN_FD: FD frame with extended identifier

DLC: Data length code of the CAN message, which can be within range 0~15.

interval: The period can be within range from 1ms to 1000ms

D0~D7: Classical CAN data frame data byte editors. Note: In FD CAN frame, these editors are unavailable and replaced by Raw Data editors located on the bottom panel.

1.2 Signals list​

Signals list displays editors for modifying signal properties of the selected CAN message defined in CAN database. The raw CAN messages do not have signals list editors.

Signal Name: The signal name defined in the CAN database.

Raw Value: Raw value editor of the current selected signal. To modify a signals raw value without touching its physical value, use this editor.

Raw Step: The increment or decrement step of the Raw Value field.

Physical Value: Physical value editor of the current selected signal. To modify a signals physical value without touching its raw value, use this editor.

Phys Step: The increment or decrement step of the Physical Value field.

2. LIN Transmit​

You can use the button to select the single-frame sending mode or the schedule sending mode.

2.1 Transmit list​

Send: Each click on this button will trigger one LIN message transmission.

Active: Activate or deactivate the current LIN frame..

Name: The name of the message, if this message is added from LIN database.

Id: Identifier of LIN message.

Channel: The channel number of LIN message.

SendType: LIN frame type, can be the one of the following 6 types:

  • Header Only: Send a Header of Lin Frame
  • Response Only: Send a Response of Lin Frame
  • Header And Response: Send a Header and Response of Lin Frame

DLC: Data length code of the LIN message, which can be within range 0~8.

interval: The period can be within range from 1ms to 1000ms

D0~D7: LIN data frame data byte editors.

2.2 Signals list​

Signals list displays editors for modifying signal properties of the selected LIN message defined in LIN database. The raw LIN messages do not have signals list editors.

Signal Name: The signal name defined in the LIN database.

Raw Value: Raw value editor of the current selected signal. To modify a signals raw value without touching its physical value, use this editor.

Raw Step: The increment or decrement step of the Raw Value field.

Physical Value: Physical value editor of the current selected signal. To modify a signals physical value without touching its raw value, use this editor.

Phys Step: The increment or decrement step of the Physical Value field.
