I am verifying can messages made by me.
These message work properly for single frame message, but multiple frame message doesn't work.
So, I would like to insert sleep or delay function between frame messages.

Is there a way to insert delay or wait function as below example?

Thanks,

Dear Jaeo,

There is no such thing in a transmit-list.
Transmit-lists only contain messages and their corresponding cycle time.

You could stagger the cycle times of a frame to get multiple possible variants of a message but you cannot introduce sleeps like this.

Also could you please give us more information on which software/API you are currently using?

Best Regards

Dear Marvin

Thanks for your quick response.
I understood that PCAN-View currently doesn't support delay feature. Is it correct?

Thanks,
jaeo.

Dear Jaeo,

No it does not, PCAN-View is not right tool for automation such as this.

You could have a look at our PCANBasic API to write a small application that
does what you intend to do:

https://www.peak-system.com/PCAN-Basic.239.0.html?&L=1

It's available for free and contains an extensive docuemntation as well as examples, which you could use to base your own implementation on.

Best Regards

Marvin
