While testing a stripped down version of my project I'm about to send, I managed to refine, even more, the steps to reproduce the bug :
Reset the Rx view ([Connections] - [Reset] menu or equivalent tool button) while the embedded device periodically sends DM1 messages containing zero or one active ...

PCAN-Explorer version : 5.4.3.905
Use of an external editor for symbol files : yes, sometimes : Notepad++ (as far as I know, it does detect the text and new-line encoding and does preserve them upon saving, in case PCAN-Explorer were sensitive to them).

(I never encountered the aforementioned bug ...

Additional hypothesis found from these latest facts :
the interpretation of enums may play no role at all in the bug.
Rather, the reloading of the symbols file triggered by external changes to it (no matter it has enums or not because it happened when I removed the enums, as well as when I restored ...

Again new last minute clues :
After restoring the symbols file to its original state = with enums (by overwriting it externally with the correct version) and being notified by PCAN-Explorer of this external file change, now the symbolic view displays both DTCs correctly (with enums) ?!!!
If I ...

Hello.

Late after the end of the lockdown, I'm back on the project where I encountered the problem.
I've checked the properties of the connection, especially :
Protocol=J1939
Reassemble incoming packets=True

Still working at home, I'll be able to answer much later only...

I'll do this after the lockdown (in France, until May 11 or later) when working at the office again, where I left all the hardware needed for the experiment.
I indeed will have to do intensive testing on the project related to this.

Needing to receive and symbolically interpret a particuler J1939 message which can be either in the single- or multi-packet format (depending on its length) (in my case the standard DM1 message), I created the symbol file accordingly (message type is J1939PG and a large number of field definitions ...

Hi.

Having used the Instruments Panel (in P.E.5) a few times, I noticed it uses fixed coordinates/size for positioning controls, which is time-consuming when designing, and not practical when resizing the whole window or tab page (because it is based on old programming technology still found in ...
