Add-On Required: This feature requires the Simulink Coder Support Package for STMicroelectronics Nucleo Boards add-on.

  • CAN Receive block

Libraries:
Simulink Coder Support Package for STMicroelectronics Nucleo Boards / STM32F7

Description

The CAN Receive block receive messages from a Controller Area Network (CAN) network connected to the hardware.

In the Unpacked mode, the block outputs different fields of unpacked CAN Messages.

In the Packed mode, the block outputs a Simulink® bus signal. To extract data from the Simulink bus signal, connect it to a CAN Unpack block.

The CAN Receive block receives messages from the CAN and delivers them to the Simulink model. It outputs a message at each time step, depending on the block parameters. The CAN Receive block stores CAN messages received from the bus in a first-in, first-out (FIFO). The FIFO delivers the messages to your model in the queued order at every time step.

Configure the FIFO and other properties of CAN module in the Configuration Parameters.

Note

CAN Receive block is currently supported only for STM32 Nucleo F767ZI processor.

Ports

Output

expand all

The port outputs CAN message identifier.

Dependencies

To enable this port, set Output type to Unpacked.

Data Types: uint32

The port outputs the length of the received CAN message in bytes.

Dependencies

To enable this port, set Output type to Unpacked.

Data Types: uint8

The block outputs data from the received CAN message. The maximum size of the data is [1x8] of uint8 format.

The number of bytes defined in the length signifies the valid data of the output.

Dependencies

To enable this port, set Output type to Unpacked.

Data Types: uint8

The port outputs the message read status.

  • The status is 1, if the block receives new message.

  • The status is 0, if the block receives no new message.

Dependencies

To enable this port select the Output Status parameter.

Data Types: uint8

The port outputs:

  • 0 - if its 11-bit standard identifier

  • 1 - if its 29-bit extended identifier

Dependencies

To enable this port, select the Output Id Type parameter.

Data Types: uint8

The port outputs 1 if the received CAN message is a remote frame.

Dependencies

To enable this port select the Output Remote parameter.

The CAN receive block outputs the CAN received message in Simulink bus signal. To extract data from Simulink bus signal, connect it to CAN Unpack block. The CAN message received from the bus will be stored in a FIFO.

Dependencies

To enable this port, set Output type to Packed.

Data Types: CAN Msg

Parameters

expand all

CAN module which is used for communication.

Note

  • CAN 0 Module on block represents CAN 1 peripheral on hardware.

  • CAN 1 Module on block represents CAN 2 peripheral on hardware.

The output type of the CAN Receive block is either Packed or Unpacked.

In the Unpacked mode, the block outputs the different fields of unpacked CAN message. In the unpacked mode, the CAN Receive block has 6 (Id, Id Type, status, Length, Remote, Data) output ports.

In the Packed mode, the block outputs a Simulink bus signal. To extract data from Simulink bus signal, connect it to the CAN Unpack block.

The CAN Receive block outputs a CAN message from read source. You can set read source filter configuration in the hardware configuration parameters.

Specify how often the block receives message, in seconds. When you specify this parameter as -1, Simulink determines the best sample time for the block based on the block context within the model.

When you select the Output Id Type parameter, the block configures an output port, Id Type. The port outputs the standard or extended message status.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set the Output type as unpacked.

When you select the Output Remote parameter, the block configures an output port, Remote. The port outputs the message remote frame status.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set the Output type as unpacked.

When you select the Output Status parameter, the block configures an output port, Status. The port outputs the status of CAN message.
