CAN Channels stops communicating, can I tell this?

I am trying to determine if the CAN stop receiving data. We are using Channels for LabView and can not find a way to determine if the CAN port has stop receiving data.

There is a utility in Measurement & Automation Explorer called the NI-CAN BusMonitor which will show you all activity on the CAN bus.  Would this help your situation or are you looking for something else?  If something has gone wrong in your application then correct error handling techniques should notify you to the problem.

What I was attempting to do was monitor the out of the read function and tell of the channel quit transmitting.  I am using the CAN Channels commands for this product. After some experimenting I found out the only way to accomplish this is was to use the GET Property--> Interface command. This appears to clear out the data buffer and leave zero's in the buffer.
