SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – ARD1939 Sample Application

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. The typical SAE J1939 ECU application not only involves the protocol stack but also a good amount of input and/or output processing. This could involve reading sensors and sending the result in form of a PGN or reading a PGN and setting [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – End of Message Acknowledgment Timeout

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. In order to test all timeouts during an RTS/CTS session, I used a dedicated Arduino sketch to simulate all the “nasty” features that would trigger a communication breakdown. This method was easier to implement rather than using a full SAE J1939 stack. [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Clear to Send Timeout

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. The simplest test for a Clear to Send timeout is accomplished by running the Mega 2560 ECU as the only node in the network.To test this scenario, I run the Mega 2560 at an address of 0x80 (128) and attempt to initiate [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – RTS/CTS Session Message Timing

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Note the time stamps from line 3 through line 5 of the screen shot (look at the last four numbers indicating the time in tenth of milliseconds; for instance 352.4 milliseconds in line 3). SAE J1939/21 requires a packet frequency between 50 [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - Transport Protocol – RTS/CTS Session (SAE J1939/21)

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Test items include: Basic function Timing controlNaturally, for the RTS/CTS session we will need two SAE J1939 nodes. In my setup that means communication between the Arduino Uno and the Mega 2560 ECUs. [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - BAM Session Message Timing

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Looking at the below image, note the time stamps from line 1 through line 4 of the screen shot (look at the last four numbers indicating the time in tenth of milliseconds; for instance 942.4 milliseconds in line 1). SAE J1939/21 requires a [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - BAM Session (SAE J1939/21)

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Test items include: Basic function Timing controlThe initial test of the BAM session requires only one ECU, in this case I am using the full protocol running on the Arduino Mega 2560 [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - Sending and Receiving Messages

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Proving the capability of the most basic task of sending and receiving regular 8-byte (CAN) messages must be seen as an unnecessary test, since that had already taken place in previous chapters. Things change, however, with the transmission and reception of J1939 [...]

SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino - Claiming Address With Contending Node

This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Now let’s have the two nodes compete for their addresses, since they both use the same preferred source address. For that purpose, it is important to consider which node starts up first, and the test results will demonstrate the difference.Test #1: Mega [...]
