Container Transforms hold other Transforms. MxTransIt displays Container Transforms gray.

CAN Signals Packer/Unpacker |
Used to pack ECU CAN signals into messages or unpack messages into signals. Messages transmitted between ECUs within the container are not available outside the container. Use the Properties box to select the CAN database (.dbc) file, the Data Flow (transmit or receive), and the Packing Option (pack or unpack). |
Parallel Execution |
Simultaneously execute Transforms using a thread-pool tailored to the available CPU cores. For example, four threads are created on a four-core CPU. The threads are allocated to the contained Transforms until they have all completed their task. This is useful for performing processor intensive tasks, such as are performed by the Image Recognition transform. (Note: Since the contained Transforms are processed concurrently, there can be no signals that pass between them.) |
A container to hold and hide other Transforms. This can be used to simplify large Harnesses and to share subsystems between projects, users, and PCs. |
To put Transforms into a Container Transform: 1. Double-click on the Container Transform. MxTransIt opens a new Editor window. 2.Use the Toolbox to create new Transforms in the new window. 3.Export the Ports you wish to be visible on the Container Transform (SubSystem in this example). To avoid confusion, exported port names should be unique. 4.Click the first tab to see the original Editor window. The color of the Transform changes depending on its contents. For more information on Subsystems, see Subsystem. |
