Bus error when using USB-8476 as slave

I want to use NI USB-8476 as LIN slave. When I try this with CVI LIN example (LIN Slave and Respond) I see following error. This setup works if I have another slave device and also keep 8476 connected to bus. When I say it works meaning I see bus traffic. But it seems like I can't send or receive any LIN frames when only master and 8476 is connected.

My master is requesting data every 40 mS. 

Do I need to setup any LIN termination?

 

 

 

Thanks.

Hi test_man,

 

When you connect the other slave device, are you able to verify that the 8476 is actually doing anything or could that traffic just be between the other slave device and the master?

 

In either case, there are a couple of older discussions about LIN networking with the 8476 that may have information that can solve this issue. Instead of trying to reiterate all of what was said there, I'll just provide the links below for you to peruse at your convenience.
