Guide to SAE J1939 - Parameter Group Number Compilation

The following is an excerpt from  A Comprehensible Guide To J1939 by Wilfried Voss. For internal purposes, the parameter group number is extended to 24 bits = 3 bytes, where the most significant 6 bits are always set to zero. Each ECU must accomplish this process individually; this procedure is not part of the CAN standard. To compile [...]

Guide to SAE J1939 - Transport Protocol (TP) Message Packaging and Reassembly

The following is an excerpt from A Comprehensible Guide To J1939 by Wilfried Voss. Certain parameter groups may require more than the eight data bytes supported by the CAN standard. The SAE J1939 standard, namely the Transport Protocol Function, supports message lengths up to 1785 bytes. If a program group requires more than eight data bytes (9…1785 bytes) and [...]

Controller Area Network (CAN Bus) Tutorial - Higher Layer Protocols

The following is an excerpt from A Comprehensible Controller Area Network by Wilfried Voss. Even though highly influential in automobiles and small applications, the CAN Bus technology alone is not suitable for machine automation since its communication between devices is limited to only 8 bytes. Consequently, higher layer protocols such as CANopen for machine control, DeviceNet for factory [...]
