of devices for CAL based communication systems
The CAL protocol software allows a fast and easy implementation of CAL applications. All communication tasks specified by CAL are covered by the CAL protocol software. The user can integrate the CAL source code easily into the application and can concentrate on his specific application.
According to the division of the CAN Application Layer into the four service elements CAN Message Specification (CMS), Network Management (NMT), Distributor (DBT) and Layer Management (LMT) the CAL software package also consists of separate modules. By means of a configuration file the software package can be configured and adapted easily to the functionality required by the application. This means no unnecessary overhead caused by unused functions will be added to the application.
The access to the CAN controller (e.g. configuration of the controller, sending and receiving objects) is handled by the Data Link Layer Interface (DLL-interface) which is implemented in a separate module. This allows an easy adaptation of the CAL software package to different CAN controllers.
The software is available as slave or master/slave version for many different microcontrollers. The included documentation and sample programs allow a fast and easy start.
