SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 1

2 3 Hardware configuration The CANstress hardware must be connected over the serial port COM1 to the RT-system To connect the CANstress hardware you need the D-Sub9 serial cable (Figure 1) Figure 1: Serial D-Sub9 cable This cable is delivered with the RT-system in the additional package (Figure 2) Figure 2: additional package of the RT-system SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 2

3 To find the serial port COM1 on the slot CPU of the RT-system please refer to figure 3 and figure 4: Figure 3: serial port COM1 on the slot CPU of the RT-system Figure 4: Slot CPU of the RT-system SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 3

4 To connect the serial cable, please refer to figure 5: Figure 5: connecting the serial cable to the RT-system After connecting the serial cable, you can connect the CANstress hardware to you RT PC over the serial port COM1. 4 CANstress with CANoe Real Time (RT-system) 4.1 Using CANstress with CANoe 7.5 SP2 or higher If you run CANoe on a RT-system it s recommended to use CANoe 7.5 SP2 and higher. The CANoe Real Time process (Simulation) runs at another machine than the CANoe GUI and Analysis part (Measurement Setup). Examples are the Vector RT-system or VN89xx or VT60xx series modules Configure CANstress in CANoe like in the ordinary CANstress integration. Add the CANstress configuration files to CANoe configuration as user files. So they are transferred to the device automatically at measurement start. SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 4

5 Figure 6: CANoe/CANstress To load configurations with CANstressOpen(), remove any file path, just use the name of the.cst file Note: If you run a CANoe version lower than 7.5 SP2, you ll need to install the CANstress application itself on the RT-system (see Chapter 4.2 below) 4.2 Installation of CANstress on the RT-system Note: Only for CANoe version lower than 7.5 SP2! Please install the CANstress software on the RT PC in the target default directory indicated while the installation. The target default directory is D:\VRT_XPem\Program Files. After the installation please check the connection with the CANstress hardware over the COM1 within the CANstress application: Options connect to check if you can see the Device with the right serial number Close the application and register it in Windows XP embedded: Start the command window: Start run cmd and type: canstress regserver After the registration, you can check if the COM-server already runs (optional) To check this, please install the Microsoft "Windows Script Hosting V5.6" on your RT-Rack. SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 5

6 You can download it from: or After installing this package, you can check the COM-Server with the following VBS-Script: Please create the file e.g. OpenCANstress.vbs edit it and insert the lines below: Set App = CreateObject("CANstress.Application") Set Config = App.Configuration Set TriggerSetup = Config.TriggerSetup TriggerSetup.BitfieldTriggerId = 100 Save the file OpenCANstress.vbs and run the command window (Start run cmd) Change into the directory where your file OpenCANstress.vbs is saved and type: OpenCANstress.vbs <ENTER> The CANstress application will be started. If the application doesn t start, please unregister the application in the command window with: canstress -unregserver and register it again with canstress -regserver After this new registration, you can try with the script OpenCANstress.vbs again. 5 Running CANstress demo configuration Start CANoe on your GUI PC Load the configuration CANstress.cfg This configuration is normally installed on: [Parent Directoy] e.g C :\Documents and Settings\AllUsers\Documents\Vector\CANoe\[CANoe version number] e.g. 7.2\CANoe Demos\Demo_CAN_CN\MoreExamples\CANstress Edit the test module (Figure 7): SN-IND-1-009_CANstress_CANoeRT.pdf 6

7 Figure 7: loading the CANstress.cfg configuration in CANoe And change the directory settings in both test cases with the CAPL-Browser: testcase BusOffTest_EngineData () {.. // Load the prepared CANstress configuration... CANstressOpen( "D:\\VRT_XPem\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Documents\\Vector\\CANStress\\Demo\\EngineData_BusOff.cst" );..} testcase BusOffTest_NM_Engine () {.. // Load the prepared CANstress configuration... CANstressOpen( "D:\\VRT_XPem\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Documents\\Vector\\CANStress\\Demo\\ NM_Engine_BusOff.cst" );..} Save the test case module and close the CAPL-Browser. The CANstress Demo files: EngineData_BusOff.cst and NM_Engine_BusOff.cst must be copied from the GUI PC to the RT PC in the directory: D:\\VRT_XPem\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Documents\\Vector \\CANStress\\Demo After copying both files, please check the baud rate in CANoe (GUI PC) and CANstress Application (RT PC). It must be the same baud rate on both applications e.g. (500 kbd for High speed CAN). Close the CANstress application on the RT PC and start the CANoe measurement on the GUI PC. The CANstress application will be started automatically on the RT PC. The Test cases on the GUI PC will be terminated with passed when the connection with the RT PC is occurred.
