Hey everyone,

another question for understanding. PCAN-VIEW needs a given CAN-ID for a message request. Where do I find these CAN-ID's, that my pcan usb can understand them?

My Setup is the following

PC -> PCANUSB -> MODULE

Now i want to send a message like: 06 00 02 00 00 00 00 00, and I have to fill in the CAN-ID. I studied all papers from my module but i am not able to find any ID to put in there. Is it a general id i can put here in? In the Internet I found sth. like 0x7DF.

maybe you can help me. Thanks a lot again!

Hi,

the CAN ID is depending on your CAN module. So please contact the manufacturer of the module to get more details on how to communicate with that device. A PCAN-USB is like a phone, you have to use the right language to be able to speak to another CAN node. PCAN-USB can send/receive any CAN 2.0a/b CAN message.

regards
