Local IP Address
This is the IP address of the device. This address is the same as the TCP comms
section.
Local Subnet
This is the subnet of the device. This subnet is the same as the TCP comms section.
Remote UDP IP address.
Address of remote connection to microDAQ. If set then the microDAQ can be set to
auto stream data to that remote host on boot up (after initialisation)
Remote UDP port.
Port of remote connection to microDAQ. If set then the microDAQ can be set to auto
stream data to that remote host on boot up (after initialisation)
‘Use IENA Specification for
Data Stream’
Turns the Data stream format to IENA specification format. More information on this
format can be found in the user programming guide.

5.3.5 CAN Parameters
The CAN communication settings are shown in Figure 5.6. Options are available to set the base
message ID number may be selected, and the offset from this base number for the reception of
user commands over CAN, and whether an acknowledgement of these user commands is sent on
the next higher message number. Data may be transmitted on either multiple messages, or
alternatively on a single message ID, with a selectable delay between messages. Additionally the
CAN bus baudrate and sample point can be modified via the setting of the BRP, TSEG1, TSEG2 &
SJW registers.

‘CAN First TX Message ID’
microDAQ uses standard CAN message arbitration id’s, and the unit is assigned the
most significant 2 digits of the Hex base address. For the digits 0x1A for example,
data for the first 4 channels will be sent on 0x1A0, the next 4 on 0x1A1, etc.
Message scheme/delay
Select ‘Multiple Messages’ for the 4 channels per message, multiple message
scheme. Alternatively data may be packed 3 channels per m identifier byte,
with a selectable delay between messages.
‘CAN RX ID Offset’
Selects the hex offset from the base message ID where microDAQ will receive
incoming user commands (see user command document). If ‘Ack. Enabled’ is
selected, the unit will acknowledge the reception of a correctly formatted command on
the message ID calculated as Base ID + RX 1
