CAN ID for Slave Activation

I am trying to figure out what this field does? I read the manual, but I still do not understand its purpose, can somebody explain what it does?

Hi,

this option is only necessary when you use older PCAN-LIN modules with serial <1000 and firmware Version 2.x.
Those older modules don´t offer space for all publisher data in the frame configuration, that is why this SlaveID + Data Configuration option is used to set the publisher data for one LIN ID.

You will find this information also in the help of PCAN-LIN CT, see "User Interface Reference->Dialog Boxes->SlaveID and Data Configuration Dialog Box"

regards

Michael
