What are you trying to do ? Send CAN messages and monitor the response or do some diagnostic activities ? USE NI CAN VI's to do all kinds of activities., as far as I can see you are trying to work on battery management systems where you might have to monitor cell voltage values, charging, discharging and others. Send CAN message in proper 11 bit or 29 bit format. Pls let us know what you need to do in specific and what kinds of problem are facing in your try, forum people are there to guide you.
