Name | Name of the channel. |
|---|---|
Channel ID | This parameter allows the driver to bind the configuration to a physical channel. When adding a new channel to the list, its ID is set to 0 by default. Make sure to change the ID to a value relevant to your simulation. |
Enable CAN FD | This parameter configures the channel in CAN FD mode allowing for up to 64 bytes of data on every message, provided that the hardware supports CAN FD. Non-CAN FD messages can still be sent/received by this channel. When CAN FD is enabled, a matching arbitration rate needs to be configured for all of the nodes of the bus on which this channel is connected. |
Arbitration bit rate | Field only visible when Enable CAN FD above is enabled. This parameter selects the arbitration bit rate when the channel is configured in CAN FD mode. The supported preset arbitration bit rate values are 1Mbps[SP 62.5%], 500Kbps[SP 62.5%], 500Kbps[SP 80%]. Users can configure a custom bitrate/sampling point combination. To do so, select Custom from the list and fill in the configuration fields (explained below). |
Bit rate | This parameter is chosen based on the desired setup (cable length) and behavior. The value is chosen from a list of bit rates from 50 Kbps to 1 Mbps (500 Kbps to 8Mbps for CAN FD) with pre-configured sampling point values. Users can configure a custom bitrate/sampling point combination. To do so, select Custom from the list and fill in the configuration fields (explained below). |
Use extended mode |
|
Use silent mode | If set to true, the channel will only act as a listener, it will not be possible to send any messages. |
Monitor bus load | If set to true, a connection point that gives the current utilization of the bus in percentage will be created. Enabling this option will slow down the CAN data communication. |
Enable transmission control | If set to true, a connection point that allows the activation or deactivation of the transmission feature of a channel at run time will be created. |
Enable reception control | If set to true, a connection point that allows the activation or deactivation of the reception feature of a channel at run time will be created. |
Monitor channel flags, error counters and statuses | If selected, connection points for channel flags, error counters and statuses will be created. |
Reverse gain/offset computation for this channel | Field only visible when Enable reverse gain/offset computation on channel basis in the General section is enabled. If selected, the gain and offset computation will be reversed. |
The following fields are available only when Custom is selected on the Arbitration bitrate field (for more information on how to configure these values please refer to the Kvaser bit timing calculator):
