Purpose

Executes the ReadMemoryByAddress service. Reads data from the ECU memory. Format

Input

diag ref in specifies the diagnostic session handle, obtained from Open Diagnostic on CAN FD.vi or Open Diagnostic on IP.vi and wired through subsequent diagnostic VIs. Normally, it is not necessary to manually manipulate the elements of this cluster.
address defines the memory address from which data are to be read. Notice that only three bytes are sent to the ECU, so the address must be in the range 0–FFFFFF (hex).
size defines the length of the memory block to be read.
error in is a cluster that describes error conditions occurring before the VI executes. If an error has already occurred, the VI returns the value of the error in cluster to error out.
status is TRUE if an error occurred. This VI is not executed when status is TRUE.
code is the error code number identifying an error. A value of 0 means success. A negative value means error: the VI did not execute the intended operation. A positive value means warning: the VI executed intended operation, but an informational warning is returned. For a description of the code, wire the error cluster to a LabVIEW error-handling VI, such as the Simple Error Handler.
source identifies the VI where the error occurred.

Output

diag ref out is a copy of diag ref in. You can wire it to subsequent diagnostic VIs.
data out returns the memory data from the ECU.
success? indicates successful receipt of a positive response message for this diagnostic service.
error out describes error conditions. If the error in cluster indicated an error, the error out cluster contains the same information. Otherwise, error out describes the error status of this VI.
status is TRUE if an error occurred.
code is the error code number identifying an error. A value of 0 means success. A negative value means error: the VI did not execute the intended operation. A positive value means warning: the VI executed intended operation, but an informational warning is returned. For a description of the code, wire the error cluster to a LabVIEW error-handling VI, such as the Simple Error Handler.
source identifies the VI where the error occurred.

Description

This VI requests memory data from the ECU identified by the address and size parameters. The data out format and definition are vehicle manufacturer specific. data out includes analog input and output signals, digital input and output signals, internal data, and system status information if the ECU supports them.
