Introduction

Purpose of the document

This document has been created in order to present the communication protocol implemented in PVED­CL – a controller in the Electro-hydraulic Power Steering system. The document describes the CAN messages which enables the PVED-CL and relevant sensor to be connected to a J1939 network.

Conventions

As suggested in J1939 protocol documentation, the little-endian layout applies to all multi-byte
numerical values, any exception requires an explicit note. Unless otherwise mentioned, all signed numerical values are encoded in two’s complement format.
The CAN Data field byte numbers start from 1.

J1939/ISOBUS compliance

PVED-CL Communication Protocol, version 1.38 Technical Information

Network Management Protocol (NMP)

To make PVED-CL able to work in CAN J1939 networks, the following parts of NMP have been implemented:
Address Claimed
Request for Address Claimed response
PVED-CL claims it address on power-on, after any won address arbitration and when requested to do so. However, please note that because of some platform and software architecture constraints, PVED-CL may claim its address even when it’s not needed. This is triggered by a RequestParameterGroup message – no matter which node has sent it and which one the message is addressed to – as illustrated on figure below.

Identification

There are 2 items which identify PVED-CL:
Source Address – available in all 29bit ID messages sent by PVED-CL
NAME – broadcast while claiming the address
Apart from this, the protocol supports the following proprietary identification:
PVED Serial Number available as a read-only parameter at index 65001
Sales Order Number at index 65002
Software Version Number at index 65003
Parameter Definition File at index 65004
SoftwareID (pgn65242) and ComponentID (pgn65259) defined by [J1939-71] are not available.

Application layer

Some steering functionality requires the Wheel Based Vehicle Speed signal (spn84) available in pgn65265 – for more detailed information see Vehicle speed on page 15. The standardized guidance messages are available in pgn44288 (Guidance System Command) and pgn44032 (Guidance Machine Status). Further details see GuidanceSystemCommand on page 33.
PVED-CL supports Request PG message, but recognizes only requests for Address Claimed (pgn60928), DM1 (pgn65226), DM2 (pgn65227) and DM3 (pgn65228). All other requests, if addressed explicitly to PVED-CL, are answered with NACK (pgn59392).
Please note the following limitations:
Only 4 ACK/NACK messages can be buffered for transmission. Other requests will be ignored
If Request PG messages are sent too fast (with an interval less than 20 ms), some messages may be
lost.

Diagnostics

PVED-CL supports the following items defined by the J1939 diagnostic protocol [J1939-73]:
DM1 – Active Diagnostic Trouble Codes
DM2 – Previously Active Diagnostic Trouble Codes
DM3 – Diagnostic Data Clear/Reset for Previously Active DTCs
A request for DM3 results in resetting the Occurrence Counts for Previously Active DTCs.

Technical Information
Communications
PVED-CL Communication Protocol, version 1.38 Technical Information
Reception of request parameter group message
Due to software architectural limitations, the following deviations apply:
If DM1 message (expected to be sent every 1s) is a long message and a long upon-the-request
DM1/DM2 is being sent out, the transmission of the cyclic message will be skipped If DM2 is a long message – more than one CAN message is needed – it will always be transmitted to
the global destination (preceded with the Broadcast Announce Message)
Proprietary error codes are available for deep diagnostics. Further details can be found in Diagnostics
(proprietary) on page 35.

Proprietary messages

Both proprietary A and B messages are in use. PDU1 proprietary messages (pgn61184) are used for configuration and control commands as well as GetCurrentMode and GetCurrentModeResponse messages, whereas PDU2 format is used for broadcast status messages.
PVED-CL uses a separate CAN buffer for receiving data from each node it can communicate with. This means there’s no dependency between messages with pgn61184 sent from different nodes.
As three different status messages can be broadcast, three proprietary PDU2 parameter group numbers are needed.
These numbers are as follows:
(65280 + offset_base)
(65280 + offset_base + 1)
(65280 + offset_base + 2)
11079551 • Rev BA • July 2014 7
Technical Information PVED-CL Communication Protocol, version 1.38 Technical Information
Communications
where the offset_base is any value within the range [0…253] and can be selected with the configuration tool. It’s OEM’s responsibility to make sure that offset_base is not programmed to a value that results in pgns other nodes may use for different purposes.
Due to a relatively high number of exchanged messages, it’s recommended to implement a separate CAN bus for the EHPS system only.

11bit ID messages

Most of the communication between PVED-CL and sensors/steering devices is performed with 11bit ID messages. This makes the sensors simpler and allows them to be used in networks with other protocols.

Proprietary protocol

PVED-CL Communication Protocol, version 1.38 Technical Information

General

Because J1939 documents do not define a standard communication protocol for systems like EHPS, a proprietary one has been defined on top of the existing common mechanisms described in previous section. The proprietary protocol covers issues related to the communication with sensors, configuration, status information, etc. Detailed information is available in the following sections.
The following general rules apply:
the time delay between messages marked as “when needed” shall not be less than 100 ms
PVED-CL shall respond within 200 ms, with exception for CommitDataResponse – 5000 ms
a response timeout shall be 500 ms (does not apply to CommitDataResponse message)
a not allowed command is ignored what results in no response sent back. Timeout policy shall apply
as a proprietary protocol is in use, default message priority shall be set to 6
PVED-CL’s can receive messages from selected nodes only. The source addresses of the vehicle speed sensor, the MMI controller, the high priority external set-point controller as well as the configuration tool and PVED-CL itself are configurable.

Communication with sensors and steering devices

In general, most of this type communication is performed with 11bit ID messages. More details about message formats can be found in chapter Communication with sensors and steering devices on page 9.
A sensor is expected to periodically broadcast the data. A lack of data from the mapped sensor (with exception for high priority set-point controller) causes PVED-CL to fail silent or enter the reduced mode, depending on the configuration data. The timeouts are as follows:

Configuration

PVED-CL’s configuration memory contain parameters which identify the system components and control the device’s behaviour. These parameters can be set up with a configuration tool.
The following operations are available:
11079551 • Rev BA • July 2014 9
Technical Information
Communications
PVED-CL Communication Protocol, version 1.38 Technical Information
retrieving a parameter value
setting a parameter value
committing data to non-volatile memory
entering the calibration mode
restoring factory defaults

Secondary configuration device

Beside the configuration tool, the high priority external set-point controller has an access to the parameter data, too. However, this device’s rights are limited to only reading the configuration settings.

Status

The information about control and sensor variables as well as PVED-CL’s current time and mode can be found in periodically broadcast status messages. For further details see chapter Status on page 22.

Control

Control messages have been implemented to make the operator able to enable/disable steering devices dynamically. This is especially useful when e.g. a joystick is mounted on the armrest and can be unintentionally activated while getting on/off the machine. Disabling a steering device prevents the controller from using the device set-points for steering. Default power-on state can be configured with proper parameters stored in non-volatile memory.
The figure below shows the steering device disabling/enabling procedure. State transitions are receptions of disable steering device commands and/or message timeouts which are set to 200 ms. For further details see Control on page 27.
The numbers in octagons show where a response is sent back (DisableSteeringDeviceResponse message):
1. Response data: enabling armed
2. Response data: device enabled
3. Response data: device disabling armed
4. Response data: device disabled
The current state of the device will be reported back if a command does not follow what’s on the figure. Note that there are independent state machines implemented for each steering device which can be disabled.

Guidance

The high priority external set-point controller does not communicate with the PVED-CL the same way as other steering devices do. The set-point controller is expected to provide PVED-CL with ISOBUS curvature commands. This approach needs a special group of messages described in Guidance on page 33 and the state machine shown on the figure Guidance Engage and Disengage State Machine below. Please note that the state machine is executed only when PVED-CL is in the operational mode, or reduced mode and the high priority external set-point controller is mapped.
