Convert Channel to Frame

[ADahl]

I don't imagine there is, but is there any way to convert CAN Channel API data into Frame API data?  Or any way to use a CAN database file with the Frame API?

I've got access to a database that was created in the Vector CANoe program and I would like to use it in LabView.  The problem is that I only have the USB-8473 CAN adapter, and that cannot be used with the Channel API.  Is there any way around this, or do I have to purchase a different CAN adapter?

Thanks.

You will get the best performance for your channels if you use a PCMCIA device with the NI CAN Channel api, but you could use your 847x USB device with the virtual Interface workaround as described with the following KB:

How to use the NI-CAN Channel API with USB-CAN Hardware?
