Hello all,

 I'm using the frame API on the NI-CAN 8473 hardware, I dont have a problem to analyze the data.  However i have a small problem, i need to add a control that will help specifying the number of samples to retrieve.  for example i need to read 100 CAN frames and stop. thank you.

Best Regards,

Hassan Badawi

Hi Hassan,

some pseudocode:

repeat
  get CAN frame data
until number of CAN frames >= 100

Looks quite easy!

If you need more/specific help you should attach your VI…

Hello GerdW,

do you mean to do something like the VI i've attached?.

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Hi Hassan,

something like your VI.

I would actually collect the data in a (2D) array - right now you only get the last frame data when your VI finishes!

Posting from mobile so I haven't opened your VI. You should use ncReadNetMult to read multiple frames, instead of putting a single frame read in a loop.

Hello all,

Is it possible to send multiple messages having different arbitration ID periodically (messages may have different periods) through single CAN

interface
