LabVIEW with CAN FD

Contents

Use this procedure for CAN FD communication with LabVIEW.

Configuration of Transform Properties

Click on the NI LabVIEW/LabVIEW-RT Transform to select it and display its Properties Box.

1.Select the CAN IO Mode to be used for communication. There are three IO modes.

•CAN: Standard CAN. The message length is 0 to 8 bytes.

•CANFd: CAN FD. The message length is 0 to 64 bytes.

•CANFd+BRS: CAN FD. The message length is 0 to 64 bytes. A higher bit rate for data phase is used.

2.Provide the Server Name/IP and Server Port to communicate with LabVIEW.

3.Provide Server Name/IP of remote PC.

4.Set the Server Port to 5482.

CANFD1

After configuring all properties, click the Enumerate Verb.

The Transform is populated similar to the example here:

CANFD2

Sample Harness

This example shows a typical harness for LabVIEW with CAN FD testing.

CANFD3

Import the CAN FD DBC file, which contains data bytes of more than 8 bytes, to CAN Transmit Driver and CAN Receiver Driver Transforms.
