CANBus
6.5 CAN encoder (mappable CAN transmit
messages)
6.5.1

Motivation

Since firmware version 4.6, the MX471B can send
several signals within a CAN message, and measured
values can also be converted to an integer format, with a
resultant signal length of 1 to 64 bits.
With the generally defined CAN encoder, it is possible to
send up to 128 signal sources in up to 128 different CAN
messages, with several different signal sources being
"mapped" within a single CAN message. This allows up
to 64 signal sources to be transmitted in each CAN
message. The number of signal sources is determined
on the basis of compatibility with the previous
<CanTransmit> implementation, and is limited by the
internal system resources.
The user parameterizes an individual CAN identifier
<Identifier> for each CAN Nachricht, as well as the
frame format <ExtendedFrame> (Base/Extended Identi­
fier) and a name <ChannelName>, to appear in the PC
software interfaces.

Signal source definition

What is sent and where does it go?
Data from several different sources can be transmitted in
each CAN Nachricht. As data 1 bit in length can also be
"mapped", it is conceivable to have up to 64 different
sources in a single CAN message. The signal source in
the system (e. g. "ModuleReference" = "UUID = 1234",
"SignalReference" = "AnalogIn_Connector1.Signal2"), the
