Hi everyone,
I start by saying that I have a base knowledge of LabView. I own LabView 2011 and a 6 month LabView 2014 trial. I also have the USB-8473 CAN Interface and NI CAN1400 drivers installed on my computer.
Through the interface I will be connected to a server to receive different pieces of information. The protocol used by the server is CAN-Bus protocol, which is a standard that I don’t know so much.
The server awaits CAN-Bus frames, that have a 11-bits identifier. To receive information from the server I need to send it a request like the one in the image attached.
To be precise I should be sending a frame made up of only one 11-bits ID and one value of RTR equal to 1.
So the server is supposed to answer me with a frame containing one 11-bits ID, a RTR value equal to 0, and 8 bytes of application data where I can read all the information I need to know.
I was wondering if you could help me giving me a working example for LabView with whom I can send a 11-bits ID to the server and receive a frame of answer from it. The 8 bytes received should be printed on screen one by one.
The only examples available after the installation of the drivers NI-CAN show me how to read/write not simultaneously data from can bus . Instead, I need to read data from can bus , but to do this I have to send the server a frame of request.
Thank you very much for your attention. If could give me a working example I could start developing all the implementation I need.
