OXRLINK BRIDGE COMMAND

E’ possibile inviare messaggi su CANBus attraverso la porta seriale
utilizzando il seguente messaggio:

BCBaaaaaaaaaaa..<ETX>
La risposta è
BCB0 (zero) se pacchetto correttamente interpretato
BCB1 se il pacchetto CAB non è correttamente interpretato

BCB è seguito dal pacchetto CAN costituito come per SAJ1000

codificato a nibble via
 BYTE.LSnibble | 0x40, BYTE.MSnibble | 0x40

Il pacchetto CAN di SAJ1000 è così costituito:

1) PACKET_ID0: 8bit più significativi di Message Identifier
a 11 bit
2) PACKET_ID1:
bit 3..0 0 DLC (Lunghezza campo DATA)
bit 4 RTR (sempre a zero)
bit 7..5 LSBit di Message Identifier
3) DATA0
4) DATA1
3) DATA2
4) DATA3
3) DATA4
4) DATA5
3) DATA6
4) DATA7
