We currently are developing a system where a single control panel controls a number of drive motors over a CAN bus. Each of those drive motors has electronics and software in them which tracks the status of the motor, and this information is sent over the CAN bus to the control panel.
We have previously used Vector CANoe to simulate the activity of the drive motor nodes on the CAN bus during development of the control panel. We want to move to LabView in order to run this kind of simulation.
Is it possible for LabView to be used to run this kind of simulation? Each node would have its own CAN ID on the bus. It would need to send out appropriate periodic status messages on that CAN bus that would be based on user inputs. It would also need to display certain information based on commands sent to it via the control panel over CAN.
Thanks for the assistance.
