Black Jaguar CAN Issues

[EricVanWyk]

I found the "enumerate" function to be really helpful for this sort of stuff. I don't have LV in front of me at the moment, but this command will tell you what IDs it sees on the CAN bus at the moment. I just stick it in a slow (5 second?) loop and have an indicator hooked to the output.

This will give you a better idea of what is going on.

Hi Gang,

When I run into these sorts of problems, it's almost always related to bus termination. The approach of putting the terminator into the RJ-12 is simply too prone to shorting out. It's best to run a short length of wire out of the RJ-12 and solder the terminator externally w/ some heat shrink to keep it safe.

HTH,

Mike
