Raptor CAN Definition

Description

This block is used to create a CAN bus resource and map it to a particular hardware I/O point. This block will generate all of the code necessary to connect and coordinate all the Raptor™ CAN blocks with the hardware CAN interface. Each CAN bus that will be used in the model must include either a CAN definition block or a CAN FD definition block.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
CAN Bus Name	String	The name of the CAN bus resource.
Hardware Resource		The hardware interface to use for the CAN bus.
Use Custom Baud Rate	Checkbox	Whether to use a built-in baud rate (unchecked) or a custom baud rate (checked). Custom baud rates are only available for specific targets.
Custom Baud Rate Name	String	The name of the Custom Baud Rate block to use. Only available if "Use Custom Baud Rate" is checked.
Baud Rate	select	The baud rate for the CAN bus. Select from a list of predefined baud rates.
Enable Baud Rate Configuration at Initialization	Checkbox	Whether to use a Simulink function to configure the CAN baud rate at initialization.
Simulink Function Name	String	The name of the Simulink Function to use.
Create a new Simulink Function	Button	Create a new Simulink Function with the name given in the field above. A valid name must be entered in order to create the Simulink function.
Transmit Queue Size	Integer	The size of the transmit queue. For the CAN bus used with XCP, it is recommended to choose a transmit queue size larger than the max number of lists per DAQ.
Receive Queue Size	Integer	The size of the receive queue.
