XNET LIN - return "empty" frames in frame stream

Status: New

Let's say, a LIN scheduler is running with 5 different entries.

One frame will be sent completely with payload by the master, this frame is visible on the bus monitor, and if I create a Frame In Stream session.

For the other 4 frames in the scheduler, the master sends only the header to the bus, and expects a slave to fill its payload. If there is no response from the slave, the frame header is not "visible" for the Frame In Stream session.

In this case, upon calling the XNET Read.vi I would see at least the frame ID without payload (empty payload).

 

In our test cases, we want to see and log all activities on the LIN bus. Currently we see only completed frames. So if we don't see a frame expected from slave, we don't know:

- whether the master does not send the header

- or the slave does not send its payload
