To simplify CAN channel configuration, the SomatXR system supports vector CAN databases.
In the System configuration section, click the Databases item in the task pane.
Browse for and select the desired .dbc database file. There is an option to Append message names to signal names. Selecting this option appends a double colon (::) followed by the message name to the signal name on import. Duplicate signal names are made unique by appending a sequential number preceded by the pound sign (#).
To begin the import process, click Import. Once imported, the new database appears in the databases list. Select the file from the list to display the CAN channels.
NOTE
If the system encounters an error during import, none of the file contents are imported. If the system encounters a CAN signal that is not supported (or appears invalid for some reason), the system will reject that specific CAN signal and generate a warning in the Log file.
Navigate to the Input channels page of the Test configuration section and click Add. In the Hardware and setups panel, select the imported CAN database under the desired CAN connector. Select the CAN channels and click OK.
