Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

Section 26.9 of the TRM for RM57 states that

"Transmission of multiple message objects may be requested at the same time"

How do you do that? Because the Halcogen code function canTransmit() is only for sending a single message object

Is it by enabling all the message objects i want to send at the same time in the TxRQ register by Setting corresponding message object bits?

Hi Akshay,
Yes, the TxRqst bit in the message objects need to be set first. Afterward, when you call the canTransmit() for the specified message object the message will be transferred.

canTransmit() takes the parameter messagebox. I want to send a range of messagebox numbers like for example 1-8. i have to write my own driver for that part?

Hi Akshay,
Yes, you will need to use the interface register to update the message objects individually.
