CAN messages

info

All here listed messages are little-endian.

This part of the documentation is for OPHION-specific messages. If you are interested in other messages, see the driver documentation

Ophion can diagram

Ophion controll message​

Using this message you can map CAN signal to OPHION input. You can also combine controller GPIO inputs with CAN inputs.

info
  • If you set /io/level_INPUT to 0,255, then the level input is used from the CAN message.
  • To controll driver mode using the CAN, set /io/can_input to 1.

Message ID​

Message ID for this message can be changed using the parameter /io/can_offset.

The message ID is calculated like this: can_offset + device address

example

Controller with address 0 and the default value of can_offset have message ID 0x610

7-ignored
  • DLC of the message must be 7 or 8, otherwise, the message is ignored.
  • Timeout for this message is 200ms. If the message is not received at this time, all the message values are set to zero.

Received values​

All the received values are shown as variables in the folder /can_input_signals. These signals are shown even if the CAN input is not used.
