Introduction

The HDV100A3 adapter has two modes of operation: J1708 Intelligent and
J1939 Intelligent mode In Intelligent mode the HDV100A3 works with a
command protocol to control different operations of the HDV100A3.

The HDV100A3 performs several functions in the intelligent mode in order
to reduce the overhead and timing requirements of the host application when
communicating with the J1708 bus. The device handles collision detection
and retries with no additional interaction from the host application. This
greatly reduces the processor overhead required by the host in order to
communicate efficiently with the J1708 bus.

Note that the HDV100A3 is powered from the vehicle side of the interface.
If the device is to be used without a vehicle, it will be necessary to connect
power to the device through the 15-pin connector. Positive voltage is
connected on pin 8. Pin 7 is connected to ground.

Intelligent Mode Verification

To confirm that the HDV100A3 is in the Intelligent mode, set the host baud
rate to 115.2 KB 8,1,N. The host application can request the vendor number
from the HDV100A3 This is done by sending the following string in hex
from the host to the HDV100A3:

(01, 01, 05, 00, 07)

It will respond as follows:

Hex (01, 0B, 85, MM, DD, MA, M1, M2, MO, 00, VV, VV, 00, DB, CS)

An example of this command can be found on page 12 of this document.
The HDV100A3 does not need to be connected to a vehicle to respond,
however power must be supplied the HDV100A3.

Intelligent Mode Command Protocol

The HDV100A3 uses a simple protocol to communicate to vehicle bus. The
protocol is divided into four parts:

Start Of Frame (SOF)
Control Field (shown in light gray)
Data Field (shown in dark gray)
Checksum (CS)

Intelligent Mode Message Structure

SOF

Number of

Control Bytes

Control Bytes Number of

Data Bytes

Data Bytes CS

1 byte 1 byte 1 to 20 bytes 1 byte 1 to 100 bytes 1 byte

The Start of Frame byte is the first byte in a valid frame and is

always 01 hex.

The Control Field sets up the function and control of the

HDV100A3 hardware and is formatted as shown below.

Control Field Structure

Number of Control
Bytes to Follow

ID Byte Function

Byte

Control Data Bytes

1 byte 1 byte 1 byte Up to 20 bytes

The first byte of the Control Field is the number of control bytes in
the message. This value indicates the number of control bytes, excluding
itself, to follow. If the message doesn’t contain any control bytes, the
Number of Control Bytes value will be set to 00 hex as a placeholder.

The next part of the message frame is the data field. The data field
is preceded by the number of data bytes, excluding itself, to follow and is set
to 00 hex if no data is present in the message. The data field is reserved for
data that is to be communicated to the vehicle bus.

Data Field Structure

Number of

Data Bytes

Data Bytes

1 byte Up to 100 bytes

The last element of a valid message is the checksum. The checksum
is calculated by adding ALL bytes from the Start of Frame (inclusive) to the
last data byte and using the last 8 bits as a checksum.

Detailed Description of General Function Codes

Command Acknowledgement

All commands sent to the device will be acknowledged. If no error occurs an
ACK will be sent with the ID byte that accompanied the command. If an
error occurred, a NACK will be sent with the ID byte that accompanied the
command as well as a Function code of $05 and the Error Code. The
responses will not be shown for each command since it is the same for
almost all commands. Below is the format of the ACK/NACK response. If
an ACK/NACK response is different for a particular command, it will be
specified.

All baud rates are entered as hex numbers. To calculate your own
decimal divisor use the following formula. The decimal number must be
converted to hexadecimal before entering the number. Baud rates below
9,600 are not recommended because of the difference in speed between the
vehicle bus and PC serial port. Additionally, baud rates faster than 115,200
baud are not supported.

The UART clock = 7,372,800 Hz

Decimal Divisor = Clock frequency ( 7,372,800

)

J1708 Commands

Receiving Data from the J1708 Bus

After the HDV100A3 is set into its Intelligent mode of operation
and the RS-232 data rate is configured, you are now ready to communicate
with the J1708 bus. A receive command must be sent to the HDV100A3
before attempting to transmit to the bus. The receive message synchronizes
the HDV100A3 with the bus. To start receiving J1708 bus data, send the
following to the HDV100A3.

Transmitting Data to the J1708 Bus

The HDV100A3 supports standard J1708 commands of up to 21
bytes. Additionally the HDV100A3 can send messages up to 100 bytes to
the J1708 bus. It is the responsibility of the sending software to check for
“ignition off” before using the J1708 bus to send messages with more than
21 bytes to the bus. Failure to check for a “quiet bus” condition before
transmitting a long message may cause erratic bus operation. The format to
send information to the J1708 bus is shown below:

J1708 Message Filter

The J1708 message filter will operate on 4 different MID’s. Only messages
with the same MID as set in the filter will be sent to the PC. The filters will
be OR’ed together so that multiple MID’s can be filtered, MID1 or MID2 or
MID3. The format for the setting of J1708 filtering is as follows:

Setting all filters off will stop all data from the J1708 bus. When all filters
are set off you must send the receive J1708 command to start receiving all
bus messages.

Broadcast Message

The HDV100A3 supports one broadcast message. Once configured by the
host application, this message will be sent repeatedly by the HDV100A3 at a
programmed time interval. This feature is useful to provide a “heartbeat”
function to the J1708 bus with no overhead to the host application’s
software. Sending 0 in the time value stops the broadcast message from
being sent.

To start a broadcast message the time interval, message slot,
priority, number of data bytes, and the data must be sent to the HDV100A3.
Once sent, the HDV100A3 will send the message out on the bus at the
specified interval. Existing bus traffic or any bus messages sent to the
HDV100A3 from the host application take priority over a pending broadcast
message.

Once a broadcast message is started the “Stop Broadcast 07”
message must be sent before any changes to the broadcast message can be
made. Changing from one time value (17) to another (37) without stopping
the broadcast will cause the HDV100A3 to act erratically.

J1939 Commands

The J1939 protocol is similar to the J1708 protocol.

The message starts with Start of Frame byte 01. The number of
control bytes will be 06. The control code for J1939 is 02. The function
codes (XX) are as follows:

00=Sets receive function off
01=Sets receive on
02=Transmits a message with data
04=Set mask

19=filter 1 set on
18=filter 1 set off
29=filter 2 set on
28=filter 2 set off
39=filter 3 set on
38=filter 3 set off
49=filter 4 set on
48=filter 4 set off

Function codes are shown in detail below.

Before operating the HDV100A3 in the J1939 mode it is
recommended that the baud rate be set to 115.2kb. This is done by sending
the following code: (01, 05, 08, 01, 03, 04, 00, 00 16). After sending this
command the baud rate of the sending device (PC) must also be changed.

Because of the difference in baud rates between the J1939 bus and
the RS-232 serial bus, the HDV100A3 may miss messages on the J1939 bus.
This depends on bus load, message length, and filter settings.

Sending any message with a control code of (02) to the J1939 bus
stops the operation on the J1708 bus. If you wish to restart operation on the
J1708 bus you must send the start J1708 reception message (01, 02, 01, 11,
00, 15). Sending this message stops operation on the J1939 bus.

Function codes 00 and 01, Receive OFF, ON
receive register. Sending the command (01, 02, 02, 01, 00, 06) starts
reception on the J1939 bus. This command resets the filter mask to all zeros
(don’t care). All bus traffic is then received. However, it may not be possible
to send all messages to the PC side. Any message that is not serviced before
the next message is received will be overwritten by the new message.
Sending the command (01, 02, 02, 00, 00, 05) turns off the receiver. It is

wise to set the receiver off when not in use. Sending the Start Receive clears
the mask. This renders the filter function useless.

The message starts with 01. The number of control bytes is 05. Next is the
control byte 02, followed by the time stamp, four bytes, with msb first. The
number of data bytes is the number of bytes to follow excluding itself and
the checksum byte. Next is a four byte that contains the arbitration field.
J1939 divides this field for different functions show in the chart below. The
number of data bytes sent by the bus is next. This will be a value between 0
and 8. Next is the bus data followed by the checksum byte.

Arbitration Field (Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4)

The first byte Y1 contains the most significant bits in the J1939 arbitration
field. It is followed by Y2, Y3 and Y4. J1939 assigns different function to
the arbitration field that must be observed by the user. There is a work sheet
included on page 33 to help set up this field.

Function code 02 sends data to the J1939 bus

.
The transmit code is set up as follows: (01, 06, 02, 02, XX, XX, XX, XX,
DD, YY, YY, YY, YY, YY, YY, YY, YY, CS). The header starts with 01.
There are six control bytes (06). The control code is (02). The transmit
command is (02). The arbitration field is filled out as shown above. There is
also a worksheet to help fill out this field. Next is the number of data bytes
in the data payload. The data payload for the message is entered in the data
field. After a transmission is successfully sent out and confirmed by at least
one active node, an acknowledge message is sent to the PC
(01, 01, 02, 00, 04). There is a form on page 33 to help set up the arbitration
field.

Set Mask

Function code 04 set mask. The mask is applied to ALL filters. The mask is
32 bits long. The last 3 bits are not used and must be set to zero. This mask
covers the 29-bit arbitration field. To use the filter function , the mask must
be set. The mask determines what position(s) will be tested and matched to
the incoming message. If a 1 is set in a particular position, that position will
be tested. It will be “and” with any active filters to determine if the message
will be passed to the PC side. Any position marked with a 0 is a “don’t care”
position and will pass all data in that position. There is a form on page 3 3
that helps set up the mask for the arbitration field.

The mask can be used to look at a group of messages:
To set the mask to filter on the J1939 priority field, the mask would be
loaded with:
(01, 06, 02, 04, E0, 00, 00, 00, 00, ED)
To set the mask to filter on the J1939 PGN field, the mask would be loaded
with:
(01, 06, 02, 04, 07, FF, F8, 00, 00, 0B)
To set mask to filter on both the priority field and the PGN field the mask
would be loaded with:
(01, 06, 02, 04, B7, FF, F8, 00, 00, BB)

Set Filter 1 to 4

Function codes 18 and 19, 28 and 29, 38 an d 39, 48 and 49 are filter pairs

.
These filters are set by sending the desired arbitration code to each filter, 1
to 4. The filters work with the mask function. If the mask is set to zero in a
position (don’t care) the value of the filter in that position doesn’t matter.
The filter arbitration field is set to match the aberration code of the incoming
message. A match of the filter “and” the mask will pass the message to the
PC. The X9 sets the filter On; X8 sets the filter Off, where X=1 through 4.
Important: the receiver and each filter must have a different arbitration
code. If the receiver and a filter are given the same arbitration code the
controller may become erratic. It will need to be powered-off reset to
recover from this error.

To use the HDV100A3, the filter for a particular J1939 PGN the following
procedure must be followed.

1. Turn off the “Receive” function by sending (01, 02, 02, 00, 00, 05).

2. Set the “Mask” to the desired pattern (01, 06, 02, 04, XX, XX, XX, XX,
00, CS).

3. Set a filter (1 to 4) to the match value (01, 06, 02, YY, XX, XX, XX, XX,

00, CS). Be sure that this is NOT the same as any other filter value or the
HDV100A3 may become erratic.

4. Sending this value to the HDV100A3 will continuously send this match to

the PC.

Note that sending the “ Start Receive” or the “Stop Receive” command
resets the mask rendering the filters useless.
