Rexgen_XML_Examples

This space contains various examples explaining how users can modify the ReXgen XML configuration for various use cases.

Gateway XML Examples

For more details on these examples, visit our GitHub.

Gateway Routing CAN0 to CAN1.

In this example, we will see how we can configure a ReXgen data logger to route all the CAN traffic from CAN 0 Bus to CAN 1 Bus

Documentation

Below image shows how each element are linked in the XML file.

They are connected using Unique IDs (UID).

Default Settings

  • CAN Baud Rate: 500 Kbps

  • All CAN IDs are Routed

The following parameters can be modified by editing the XML as required.

Modifying CAN Baud Rate:

Edit the value of the CANBusSpeed element in the XML file under the CAN interface block. Value has to be specified in bps

Users can load the XML file into the ReXgen logger using the ReXdesk application/ReXdesk Convert application or the Rxlibrary DLL.

Users can load the XML file into the ReXgen logger using the ReXdesk application/ReXdesk Convert application or the Rxlibrary DLL.

The process sends XML to the logger using ReXdesk. Click on Config Menu > Run > Run Config Using External File > Browse the XML file and click Open.

ADC Data Recording & Transmission Over CAN Bus.

In this example, we will see how we can configure a ReXgen data logger to transmit the ADC data over the CAN Bus and record the ADC data in the internal storage.

Following ADC Data will be transmitted via CAN 0 Bus and recorded in internal memory:

ADC 0 ADC 1

Documentation

The below image shows how each element is linked in the XML file.

They are connected using Unique IDs (UID).

Default Settings

  • CAN Baud Rate: 500 Kbps

  • ADC Sampling Rate: 100ms

  • CAN ID For various signals:

  • 0x12A – ADC 0 & ADC 1

  • Example DBC provided with XML.

The following parameters can be modified by editing the XML as required.

Modifying CAN Bus Channel:

Edit the value of the PhysicalNumber element in the XML file under the CAN interface block. 0 for CAN 0, 1 for CAN 1, 2 for CAN 2 and 3 for CAN 3

<CANINTERFACE UID="4">
        <Type>CAN</Type>
        <PhysicalNumber>0</PhysicalNumber>
        <CANBusSpeed>500000</CANBusSpeed>
        <CANFDBusSpeed>8000000</CANFDBusSpeed>
        <CANFDNonISO>false</CANFDNonISO>

Modifying CAN Baud Rate:

Edit the value of the CANBusSpeed element in the XML file under the CAN interface block. Value has to be specified in bps

<CANINTERFACE UID="4">
        <Type>CAN</Type>
        <PhysicalNumber>0</PhysicalNumber>
        <CANBusSpeed>500000</CANBusSpeed>
        <CANFDBusSpeed>8000000</CANFDBusSpeed>
        <CANFDNonISO>false</CANFDNonISO>

Modifying ADC Sampling Rate:

Edit the value of the SamplingRate element under the ADC list. Block Value has to be specified in milliseconds

<ADC UID="6">
        <PhysicalNumber>0</PhysicalNumber>
        <Rate>100</Rate>
		<ParA>1<ParA>
		<ParB>0<ParB>
 </ADC>

Specifying the ADC Factor and Offset:

Par A specifies the Factor, and Par B specifies the Offset.

<ADC UID="6">
       <PhysicalNumber>0</PhysicalNumber>
        <Rate>100</Rate>
		<ParA>1<ParA>
		<ParB>0<ParB>
 </ADC>

Modifying the CAN Identifier for the messages:

Edit the values of MessageIdentStart and MessageIdentEnd Elements under the CANMESSAGE block for the message you wish to edit. Please note that the example DBC will be invalid after this change.

Value has to be entered in Decimal

<CANMESSAGE_LIST>
      <CANMESSAGE UID="36">
        <MessageIdentStart>299</MessageIdentStart>
        <MessageIdentEnd>299</MessageIdentEnd>
        <Direction>OutputPeriodic</Direction>
        <DLC>8</DLC>
        <IsExtended>false</IsExtended>
       

Modifying the CAN Message transmission period:

Edit the values of Period Elements under the CANMESSAGE block for the message you wish to edit.

Value has to be entered in milliseconds

<CANMESSAGE_LIST>
      <CANMESSAGE UID="36">
        <MessageIdentStart>299</MessageIdentStart>
        <MessageIdentEnd>299</MessageIdentEnd>
        <Direction>OutputPeriodic</Direction>
        <DLC>8</DLC>
        <IsExtended>false</IsExtended>
        <InterfaceUID>4</InterfaceUID>
        <Period>100</Period>
