Hello, Just bought a DMC60c and trying to get started. I am not using it with FIRST or robot controls, I want to use a CAN message to control a DC motor.
I confirmed the DMC60c works with PWM input. I am now trying to get CAN communication working.
I am in the automotive industry, I am using ATI Vision with a KVaser Leaf Light to send CAN messages. From the Documentation it looks like I should send 0x00000240 as a 29bit identifier. I am sending the message, but DMC60C is alternating flashing Red lights indicating it doesn't see CAN. To confirm there is CAN I have a Vector VN1630 which I am monitoring the CAN network with it sees the message is being sent. I attached a block diagram of the layout I have.
I assume I must misunderstand what or how to send the message to the DMC60c. Also attached is a screen shot of the message I am sending.
I have tried sending messages with 4 and 8 bytes of data, sending all 0's and with Device Type 2 and Manufacturer Encoding 6. Anyway I send I get no indication the DMC60C acknowledges any CAN message.
