CAN channel to frame conversion

[kein]

Hello,

I'm trying to write my first CAN application and need to convert some frames into channels but I really don't know how.

I'm using a cRIO 9004 controller with a 9852 module. cRIO returns me a cluster with with 8 data bytes, identifier,  timestamps, info A and B and data length.

I want to get the following frames and convert it:

ID = 554hex;  Byte-Nr. 7;  8 Bit long

ID = 255hex;  Byte-Nr. 6 and 7;  16 Bit long

What is the best way to extract that from the cluster?

Any help would be helpfull

kind regards

miko

The FPGA CAN I/O node has a second data type available. If you right click the node and choose properties you can have a 6 U32 data type. That type makes it easier to manipulate the data bytes. U32 number 4 and 5 are holding the 8 data bytes.

There are VIs shipping with NI -CAN, installed within the labview examples>>NI-CAN>> logfile.llb showing the details of accessing the U32 values.

Hope that helps.

It's working now. I'm using 6 U32 data values as you adviced.

Thank you for your advice.
