20 CANBus Networking Manual V2.0 July 8, 2019
Configurations Read/Writes
Configuration settings, like Amp Limit or Operating Modes can be read and changed on a
remote node via the CAN bus. For example
@04^ALIM 1 250 will set the current limit of channel 1 of node 4 at 25.0A
@04~OVL will read the Overvoltage limit of node 4.
Note that changing a configuration via CAN only makes that change temporary until the
remote controller is powered down. The %EESAV maintenance command must be send
to the remote node to make the configuration change permanent.
A configuration write can be broadcast to all nodes simultaneously by using the node Id
00. For example
@00^OVL 250
Will set the overvoltage limit of all nodes at 25.0 Volts
Configuration reads cannot be broadcast.
See the Commands Reference section for the complete list and description of available
configurations
Remote Configurations Read restrictions
Remote Configuration Reads can only return a single value whereas local Configuration
Reads can be used to read an array of parameters. For example
~AMOD
Will return the operating mode of all analog capture channels in a single string as
AI=01:01:00:01:02
@04~AMOD
Will return only the mode first analog capture channel as
@04 AI=01
Configuration reads cannot be broadcast.
Remote Maintenance Commands
Maintenance Commands are not supported in RoboCAN.
