PN/J1939 LINK assign parameters
You configure module parameters for the created J1939 LINK. The module parameters
include:
● Parameters for identifying the PN/J1939 LINK in the J1939 network
● Communication parameters
Module parameters (J1939 device name)
The parameter values entered at ① together form the 64-bit device name of the
PN/J1939 LINK. This device name also determines the priority that the device has for
"Address Claiming".
You can use the "Arbitrary Address Capable" parameter to specify whether PN/J1939 LINK
can change its "Source Address".
You can find additional information on the parameters in the section J1939 protocol
(Page 15).
Figure 9-2 Module parameters
Using the communication parameters ②, you define the data transmission rate between
PN/J1939 LINK and J1939 bus and the "Source Address" on the J1939 bus.
You can check and set the start and end addresses of the input and output data for
J1939 LINK via the "I/O Addresses" page. In addition, the address range can be assigned to
an organization block and a process image. I/O addresses are preset by the system.
