I have a software called "Device Monitoring Studio" running prior to starting the Trifecta datalogging software. It is a serial monitor that captures each frame sent through the COM 6, which is the FTDI usb-serial chip in the AVT-852.antus wrote:How are you collecting that data? I dont think you are interpreting it correctly. I think you might have lost sync and be looking a mid parts of can messages, not AVT commands. 50 60 and 50 60 00 look like the same fragment, just with the break in different places. Just the same I dont think you can rely on the start being the start either. The AVT commands are in the manual, so if they dont line up then there is a problem with your process.
I do believe that I am collecting my data correctly. Device Monitoring Studio time stamps each packet sent out. So far, most of the data collected looks robust, and I have interpreted them in accordance with the AVT manual as follows: http://pastebin.com/nneHfYZM (please pardon the mess, it looks much better in excel).
So aside from the previous commands I mentioned earlier, I will have to interpret the CAN bus commands as well. This seems particularly daunting as I do not believe a universal standard exists. Some direction in this regard would be appreciated.
Thank you again for the help.
