15.3.18 Message Control (MC0 to MC15)
The message control register sets consist of eight 8-bit registers for one mailbox. The HCAN has
16 sets of these registers. Because message control registers are in RAM, their initial values after
power-on are undefined. Be sure to initialize them by writing 0 or 1. Figure 15.2 shows the
register names for each mailbox.
