General
Tip:
- Only 11-bit CAN-IDs are currently supported.
- With CANopen, the data are always sent over the bus in little-endian format.
CAN message
CAN messages are described in this chapter; these are written in the following format:
583 | 41 09 10 00 1E 00 00 00
183R | DLC=0
The individual messages are written as follows:
- All numbers are written in hexadecimal notation; due to the abbreviated notation, the leading
0x
is omitted. - Normal data message: The CAN-ID is prefixed to the CAN message; in the above example, the ID
583
(i.e., 583h or 1411d). The data and the CAN-ID are separated from the data with a pipe character. - RTR message (remote transmission request): If an
R
follows the CAN-ID instead of the data, the length of the DLC (Download Content) is specified. In the above example, the length of the DLC is 0.
