Writes data to a session as an array of raw bytes.
The session to write. This session is selected from the LabVIEW project or returned from XNET Create Session. The session mode must be Frame Output Stream, Frame Output Queued, or Frame Output Single-Point.
An input that provides the array of bytes, representing frames to transmit.The raw bytes encode one or more frames using the Raw Frame Format. This frame format is the same for read and write of raw data and also is used for log file examples.
If needed, you can write data for a partial frame. For example, if a complete raw frame is 24 bytes, you can write 12 bytes, then write the next 12 bytes. You typically do this when you are reading raw frame data from a logfile and want to avoid iterating through the data to detect the start and end of each frame.
For information about which elements of the raw frame are applicable, refer to the XNET Write node for the protocol in use (XNET Write (Frame CAN), XNET Write (Frame FlexRay), or XNET Write (Frame LIN)).
The data you write is queued up for transmit on the network. Using
the default queue configuration for this mode, you can safely write 1536 frames if you have a sufficiently long timeout. To write more data, refer to the XNET Session Number of Values Unused property to determine the actual amount of queue space available for writing.
The time to wait for the raw data to be queued up for transmit. The timeout is a LabVIEW relative time, represented as 64-bit floating-point in units of seconds.
If timeout is positive, XNET Write (Frame Raw) waits up to that timeout for space to become available in queues. If the space is not available prior to the timeout, a timeout error is returned.
If timeout is negative, XNET Write (Frame Raw) waits indefinitely for space to become available in queues.
If timeout is 0, XNET Write (Frame Raw) does not wait and immediately returns with a timeout error if all data cannot be queued. Regardless of the timeout used, if a timeout error occurs, none of the data is queued, so you can attempt to call XNET Write (Frame Raw) again at a later time with the same data.
This input is optional. The default value is 10.0 (10 seconds).
If the session mode is Frame Output Single-Point, you must set timeout to 0.0. Because this mode writes the most recent value of each frame, timeout does not apply.
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
Default: No error
An output that is the same as session in, provided for use with subsequent nodes.
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

The raw bytes encode one or more frames using the Raw Frame Format. The session must use a mode of Frame Output Stream, Frame Output Queued, or Frame Output Single-Point. The raw frame format is protocol independent, so the session can use either a CAN, FlexRay, or LIN interface.
The raw frame format matches the format of data transferred to/from the XNET hardware. Because it is not converted to/from LabVIEW clusters for ease of use, it is more efficient with regard to performance. This instance typically is used to read raw frame data from a log file and write the data to the interface for transmit (replay).
The raw frames are associated to the session's list of frames as follows:
