Error 1074388985 at every Frame API CAN Examples

hi,
i work with the NI USB-8473 high speed can box, and LabView Version 8.2
when i try out any NI CAN FrameAPI examples (CAN Transmit - event based.vi, CAN Receive.vi,..);
the Error Message "1074388985" already appears at the ncConfigCANNET.vi
the installation & configuration should be ok.
Any Idea?
Thanks,
Ralf

hi Matthieu,
thx for your reply.
i've found yesterday morning one cause for the error-message (after software re-install);
-> it's not possible to start the ni can bus monitor & afterwards using any can.vi application.
is that a normal thing?
greets Ralf

Why do I get error -1074388985 at CAN Connect Terminals when the Channel API has been stopped?

While trying to establish synchronized CAN and DAQ using the Channel API, I get the error -1074388985 while attempting to connect the RTSI Clock to the master timebase. The error message occurs each time I try to run the example VIs shipped with LabVIEW 6.1. I am using a Series 2 PCI CAN card with a 6034E DAQ card. Any ideas? Tech support did not have a solution.

Hi AVR,
This warning means you have tried to change an attribute on a running object. This causes the warning and should not take place.
Use the "Initialize' function instead of the "initStart" Function, then change the Attribute and use the "Start" function to start the communication, or stop the communication using the "stop" Function before you change any Attribute and then start again.
Hope that helps

CAN frame API with two buses

Hi,
I'm using a PXI 8461 to control 2 CAN-bus lines.
When I start the bus monitor in MAX, both work correctly (frames are coming in).
But I wasted a day now to try to make both lines work in my app.
I'm calling ncConfigCANNet.vi and ncOpen first with CAN0, then with CAN1. ncOpen with CAN0 gives me an objHandle, but when I cann ncOpen with CAN1 after that, I get objHandle=0 but no error!
(I not using error inputs)
So in my app CAN0 is running, CAN1 will eventually return an error when I try to read from it using the objHandle (with is 0).
I even tried to use the NI-example "Multiple CAN Cards Frame API Single DAQmx Card Input.vi" with the same effect.
Is there a known issue about that?
I'm using
NI-CAN 2.7.2f2
LV 8.5.1
PXI8461 with CAN0 and CAN1 working with the MAX busmonitor

Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you look at this vi from the NI-examples:
Multiple CAN Cards Frame API Single DAQmx Card Input.vi
this is what I'm doing. As I said, this example is behaving the same way as my program. CAN0 responds, CAN1 doesn't.
MAX is closed. And even if there was some other program allocating CAN1 there should be an error. But ncOpen runs without error and still returns null. Just like calling it with an error on the "Error In" terminal... but I have no error there.
I even tried the low-level / depreciated ncReset.vi. No luck.
One more thing I don't understand is why ncOpen.vi is reentrant and all the other VIs from the nican.llb are not. In the end they are all calling nican.dll.
Any ideas?

CAN periodic transmit message with different modes using Frame API's

I want to transmit a CAN message periodically using Frame API's. I am able to send messages which dont have modes inside the message. For some messages having multiplexer in ".ncd " files and inside that multiplexer having different modes. Now in order to send all the modes of that message periodically by configuring them once by using Frame API's i did not find a way. I am able to send messages but the last updated mode is only sent periodically. Is there any way that CAN message having different modes can be sent periodically, updating all modes periodically automatically using Frame API's.

Hello Kpraveen,
You could set the period for N*Period, N being the number of modes. You just need to make sure your application changes the modes fast enough to update each periodic frame.
For example, say you have 2 modes and the frame's period should be 10ms. That means that you would like that frame to go out twice every 10ms, updating mode 1 and then mode 2. So, that means that the frames period can be 5ms.
1. It will start by updating mode1
2. 5ms later, it will update mode2
3. 5ms later it will update mode1 again
mode 1 really has a period of 10ms...
You just have to make sure that you can update the frame fast enough, or switch between modes fast enough, or you will send the same mode twice.
Let me know if this helps, or if I an not understanding this properly. Have a great day.

Can you monitor signals using frame api on a PDA?

Hi all
I'm pretty new to LV all together, but I'm working on writing a program to monitor information off our CAN network, like oil pump speed, water temp, batt voltage, etc. Is there a way to monitor these signals using the frame api, opposed to channel api, and display them continuously on a gauge/meter? Since I'm using PDA module, I have to use the frame api, and not channel. Frame api seems a little more vague to me than channel api. Any advice or tips are welcome.
Also on a side note, I copied/pasted a tab that i changed the background color to yellow from a windows targeted program to a PocketPC one. The tabs stayed yellow when I built and transfered the .exe to the pda, but i don't have any control now on its color because PDA module doesn't have Property Nodes. Every now and then, the tabs will go to default grey, and i have to undo the changes to get it back to yellow. Is there some way to control the color? I don't think the Change Control Color works in this case.
Thanks ahead for any comments and advice.

....By the way, i'm using a PCMCIA-CAN/2 (HS) card on a PDA running WinCE5.0 and soon to be one running WinCE4.2...

Is NI-CAN v2.3 & NI PCI-CAN/XS2 with Frame API Thread Safe?

Hi, I'm downloading a file from the host computer to the modules. When I downloaded the data to the four module at the same time (with 4 threads), I'm getting communication failure ~ 20% of the time. When I synchronized the software, so it will download two modules at a time (using one port from each card at a time). The communication failure disappeared. I just wonder if the NI-CAN software & PCI-CAN/XS2 are thread-safe. I'd appreciate if anyone have any suggestion.
Information of the software & hardware
- Computer: Pentium4 2.8GHz, 512M Ram
- OS: Windows 2000
- Development Tool: Borland C++ Builder v5
- NI-CAN v2.3 - The application is using Frame API
- PCI-CAN/XS2 (SW-Selectable CAN, 2 Ports)
- CAN bus: 500k High Speed
Thanks
Eric

The NI-CAN software does support threads. What's the specific error
you're getting that 20% of the time? It may be due to something besides
the multi-threading.

Where can I find the Frame API for CAN

Hello,
I'm fairly new to labview and working with CAN Buses. I am trying to read messages from a CAN Bus. I downloaded some examples from the web site, and I ran the programs, but it seems like I am missing a bunch of VI files for example, "ncConfigCANNet.vi" or "ncOpen.vi", all of which are part of the Frame API. I am wondering, where I can get these files, as I have been searching all over the web only to find nothing.
Thank you very much for any responses!
Solved!

Have you installed the NI-XNET driver ? If yes, have you checked the NI-XNET Compatibility Library for NI-CAN ?
See here for more details.
These VIs will also be installed by the NI-CAN driver.

NI-CAN Frame API: Variable Periodic CAN Object

Hi,
I am developing an application that send CAN messages with NI-CAN Frame API.
Some of my messages have specification of variable periodic where
- On idle, NI-CAN will periodically send the message at 100ms period of last message
- On a user input, it will send at period of 10ms for short period (200ms) and back to idle.
In CAN Object Configuration, as I put period to 100ms, The idle data is correct but when I need to send the user input, the data is sent using the period of 100ms as well. If I put period to 10ms, even during idle data, the message are sent every 10ms.
If I configure the CAN Object's communication type to transmit data by call, the data is only sent once and not periodic.
Does the NI-CAN Frame API supports variable periodic CAN Object?
Is there suggested way to have such a message?

Hello,
In general, a clear function will flush all data associated to a task. Have you tried using nctClear()? Although this is a legacy driver so that may not be the case…I found this article that explains how to reset the device (same functions are available in the C API, see manual) which can help but according to this thread is not a 100% effective due to its limitations. Nevertheless, is better than nothing.
I hope this helps

847x USB-CANにおけるFrame APIのサポート内容

　USB CANインターフェース USB-8473 と Frame API for C を使用してプログラミングしていますが、まだ対向デバイスがないので実地にいろいろと確認できない状況です。
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E1A44077DA6C819186257288006B76D7
上記ページに847xでのFrame API 制約等の記述がありますが、関数名等が NI-CAN Hardware and Software Manual Capter11 と一致しておりません。少し内容が古いのかとも思われますが、現行2.5に一致するものをご紹介いただけたらと思います。
基本的には、ネットワークオブジェクトのサポートだけで、CANオブジェクトはサポートしていないと理解しておりますが、細部に関して自信が持てずにおります。
１）
ncConfig() で指定可能なパラメータがボーレートとStartAtOpenの二者のみとのことですが、例えば NCATTR_WRITE_Q_LEN は、なにかデフォルト値が適用されるということでしょうか?
ncWriteMultはタイプスタンプ以外使用可能と思いますが。
２）
ncCreateNotification() は制約無しでしょうか?
３）
ncWaitForState() は、現在でもncRead/WriteMult() をサポートしていないのでしょうか?
以上、USB-CANに関する質問です。

How can I check the locV of a sprite on every frame?

I'd like to know how can I tell Director, in Lingo, to check
the position of a sprite in every frame in order to use that
position to set the value of a global variable. I want to avoid
having an on enterFrame script on every frame as I will need to do
this with various sprites all the time. I tried an on enterFrame
movie script but when I check the value of the variable with the
message window it's always 1 (I initialized the variable with that
value), regardless of wether the condition is being met on that
specific frame or not. I also placed an on enterFrame script on the
sprite and it would not work either. According to the
documentation, on beginSprite only works if the sprite was not on
the stage previous, and this sprite will always be on the stage,
just in a different locV when I need it to be.
Any suggestions please?

Here's how you could create a single list containing all the
locV values that you want:
global gLocVList
on enterFrame
if ilk(gLocVList) <> #propList then
gLocVList = [:]
end if
vSpriteList = [2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19] -- or other
spriteNums
repeat with vSpriteNum in vSpriteList
vLocV = sprite(vSpriteNum).locV
gLocVList.setaProp(vSpriteNum, vLocV)
end repeat
end enterFrame
However, it seems rather pointless to do this, as it checks
the locV of every sprite on every frame whether you need that
information or not. Since the sprite references are globally
available anyway, you would use fewer CPU cycles if you just asked
for...
sprite(x).locV
... (where x is a sprite name or spriteNum, or a variable
holding such information ) whenever you actually require the value
of the locV.

"Baud Rate" AttrId not found for CAN frame API's ncGetAttr and ncSetAttr

Hi,
Well, everything is in the Subject : "Baud Rate" AttrId not found for CAN frame API's ncGetAttr and ncSetAttr
Although it is listed in the LabVIEW Documentation, it is not in the enum's items gotten from `right click` -> `create` -> `contsant` on their `AttrId` connector.
My actuall need would be for checking a formerly opened CANNet handle compatibility against hardware requirement, so ... ncGetAttr.vi
Anyway, if somebody knows the actual u32 to hardwire instead of the enum constant, or did I get something wrong ?
Thanks

Hello,
You are quite right about the ncGetAttr.vi however the ncSetAttr does have a Baud Rate item if you scroll further down.
To get the Baud Rate wire a x80000007 to the AttrId pin. Or you can double click on the the ncSetAttr and then go into its block diagram, now
in the case structure select case 27 copy the numeric constant (which should be x80000007) and use it as the input to the ncGetAttr
Let us know if this helps.

CAN Channel to Frame API

Hi All,
In a bit of a jam...we're using CAN channel api to manage a few functions of a piece of hardware thats on a CAN bus. Works great. Code is attached as a picture.
We are duplicating the system and have loaded the entire PC up and had to resort to a USB based CAN card that doesn't support channel API. Yeah bad.
I found NI provides something called the " CAN Frame Channel Conversion Library 1.0.2" and have been trying to get it to work. I'm not getting any results though...does anyone else have experience with this? Is it possible to modify all our vi's that are CAN based like the one attached?
Talk to me like a little kid on this one, CAN at frame level is completely new to me.
I am able to watch all the data on the bus via MAX and the bus monitor, so I thought this would be more a labview board type question.
Thanks!

Hi
I didn't know there is a genuine conversion library
I've been recently doing some work as vacation replacement for a colleague that had a CAN interface for a data logger.
Since the channel API is relatively slow the concept was to log everything in frame API and later convert it to channel by passing it through a virtual CAN bus. This is provided by NI at "ports" 255 and 254 or something like that. You should check the help docu which is not too bad.
The only caveat was that the simulated CAN does by default also simulate delays and transmission time on the bus, you have to explicitly set this to no or zero or something. On TX and RX this works differently one is a property node the other a method. and you have to be precise with the sequence of doing what.
But in the end it worked.
Unfortunately the program is now on the customer's PC. So I cannot be any more precise on the how-to-dos.
I hope it helped just a bit

Filtering can frames with frame api (part 1)

Hello,
I have problems to understand the filter techniques in the frame api for C/C++.
My current structure is as follows:
- I have a NI CAN Card (Series 2 HW, Philips SAJ 1000 Contoller, 1 CAN Interface (CAN0))
- On the CAN BUS Interface one target device is connected (it is a controlling unit for a sliding gate, automotive)
- I 've created 2 CAN Network Interface Objects, one for receiving, another for transmitting frames
- all received Frames from the target (incomming frames) are handled by the receiving Object.
- its configuration is as follows:
m_attrList[0] =       NC_ATTR_BAUD_RATE;
            m_valueList[0] =    83333; //CC.NC_BAUD_100K;
m_attrList[1] =
NC_ATTR_START_ON_OPEN;
            m_valueList[1] =    NC_TRUE;
m_attrList[2] =       NC_ATTR_READ_Q_LEN;
m_valueList[2] =    0; //number of frames (not bytes!)
m_attrList[3] =       NC_ATTR_WRITE_Q_LEN;
            m_valueList[3] =    0;
m_attrList[4] =       NC_ATTR_COMP_STD;
m_valueList[4] =    NC_CAN_ARBID_NONE; //handle all
frames that are not handled trough CANObjects
//CC.NC_MASK_STD_DONTCARE;//0x791;
m_attrList[5] =       NC_ATTR_MASK_STD;
m_valueList[5] =    NC_MASK_STD_DONTCARE;//0x791;
m_attrList[6] =       NC_ATTR_COMP_XTD;
            m_valueList[6] =    NC_MASK_XTD_DONTCARE;
m_attrList[7] =       NC_ATTR_MASK_XTD;
            m_valueList[7] =    NC_MASK_XTD_DONTCARE;
- opening it as follows:
            iStatus = ncConfig("CAN0", 8, m_attrList, m_valueList);
            iStatus = ncOpenObject("CAN0", objRXHandle);
- I 've configured it with ncCreateNotification(objRXHandle,...), so on any received frame a callback is invoked.
- no remote frames are used, since the target doesn't support them.
- similarly I've defined the transmitting Object, but not opened it,
because I do the transmitting via CANObjects (one per ArbID)
- frames are only received after a command is written to the target
(calling ncWrite(...)) within a manufcturer specific frame for a
CANObject
- up to now all fine
- now I want a filter mechanism wich allows me to define a list of ArbIDs that must not be processed
- my intention was to define the attribute and value of the receiving CAN Network Interface Object (as mentioned above):
(...please continue on part 2)

for answer see part 2
