IO602 - CAN Read

IO602 - CAN Read — Read CAN (HS) and CAN-FD messages from one channel of the IO602 I/O module

Library

Simulink Real-Time - Speedgoat

Description

The IO602 CAN Read block reads messages from one channel of the IO602 input queue.

In each execution step it reads one message and indicates if more messages are available.

Refer to the "Usage Notes" to find out how this block can be used in a "do-while" subsystem to prevent overflows of the read buffer.

The read buffer has a nominal capacity of 256 CAN messages per channel. The read buffer's capacity will be reduced by higher DLCs possibly applied with CAN-FD. It will be further reduced by one for each acknowledge of a sent message.

Ports

Which outputs are available depends on the Channel Selection setting of the corresponding IO602 Setup block and the Message Type setting of the respective block:

  • CAN (HS) & CAN: The only message type available is CAN_MESSAGE output

  • CAN-FD & CAN: The only message type available is CAN_FD_MESSAGE_BUS output

  • CAN (HS) & RAW: Identifier, Length, Identifier Type, Timestamp and Data outputs are available

  • CAN-FD & RAW: Identifier, Data Length Code (DLC), Identifier Type, Timestamp, BRS and Data outputs are available

  • RAW + CAN: All output ports related to CAN (HS) or CAN-FD apply

Outputs
Data Present

Status signal is "1" if new data is available and "0" otherwise. The data type is boolean.

CAN Msg

The complete CAN message. Please use the "CAN Unpack" or "CAN-FD Unpack" block to resolve the data, depending on which setting applies to the channel.

The data type is CAN_MESSAGE if CAN (HS) is selected.

The data type is CAN_FD_MESSAGE_BUS if CAN-FD is selected.

ID

The CAN message identifier. The data type is uint32.

EFF

The identifier type (Extended Frame Format) of the CAN message.

  • 0: 11-bit identifier

  • 1: 29-bit extended identifier

The data type is uint8.

Length/DLC

If CAN (HS) is selected in the related Setup block, this port outputs the length of the payload data. If CAN-FD is selected in the related Setup block, this port outputs the DLC.

The DLC and corresponding byte lengths are as follows.

DLCByte Length
0-80-8
99-12
1013-16
1117-20
1221-24
1325-32
1433-48
1548-64

The data type is uint8.

Timestamp

The timestamp for receipt of the CAN message. The resolution is 1 µs. The data type is double.

BRS

The Bit Rate Switch (BRS) indicates whether the data segment of the received message was transmitted with the fast data rate. The data type is uint8.

Data

Outputs the payload of a message as a vector of data type uint8. If the payload is shorter than the size of this output port, it is completed with zeros.

The data length of the output port is 8 bytes with CAN (HS).

The data length of the output port is 64 bytes with CAN-FD.

Parameters

Module ID

This ID defines the link to the corresponding Setup block

Sample Time

Defines the base sample time at which this driver block gets its sample hit. This parameter can also be set to -1 for inherited sample time. The units are in seconds.

Channel Number

Select the CAN channel to which this driver block corresponds.

Message Type

Defines how the CAN message is represented at the block outputs. It depends also on the Channel setting of the related IO602 Setup block.

  • CAN with CAN (HS): Only one CAN Msg output port is available. The port will always be connected to one or more CAN Unpack blocks

  • CAN with CAN-FD: Only one CAN Msg output port is available. The port will always be connected to one or more CAN-FD Unpack blocks

  • RAW with CAN (HS): The message content is presented by a number of output ports: ID, Length, EFF, Timestamp and Data

  • RAW with CAN-FD: The message content is presented by a number of output ports: ID, DLC, EFF, BRS, Timestamp and Data

  • CAN + RAW: Both versions are displayed

Output as bus

Select this option for the block to output CAN messages as a bus signal.
