CAN in the ecomatmobile controller
> The window [Properties] extends as follows:
Meaning of the options:
Network type
As network type you can enter one of the network names indicated in the target settings.
If you click on the button [Settings] next to it, you can select the CAN interface:
1. CAN interface: value = 0
2. CAN interface: value = 1
etc.
Pack variables
If this option is activated with [v], the variables are combined, if possible, in one transmisson unit. For
CAN the size of a transmission unit is 8 bytes. If it is not possible to include all variables of the list in
one transmission unit, several transmission units are formed for this list.
If the option is not activated, every variable has its own transmission unit.
If [Transmit on change] is configured, it is checked separately for every transmission unit whether it
has been changed and must be transmitted.
List identifier (COB-ID)
The basic identifier is used as a unique identification to exchange variable lists of different projects.
Variable lists with identical basic identifier are exchanged. Ensure that the definitions of the variable
lists with the same basic identifier match in the different projects.
