We are using the PX2 Tegra A for some CAN message sending and receiving. We are using can0, which we have defined by editing ‘/etc/network/interfaces’ and doing the following:
allow-hotplug can0
iface can0 can static
bitrate 250000
up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE down
up /sbin/ifconfig $IFACE txqueuelen 20000
up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE type can bitrate 250000 restart-ms 10
up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE up
Then, when we restart the computer and turn on our CAN devices, we are able to communicate, however with some specific messages sent, our CAN bus crashes and we cannot send or receive any more messages. If we connect to these devices without the PX2, say by plugging them into our windows laptop and using PCAN-view, we get no such errors.
We are also able to change one of our devices baud rates, so when we make it 500, and then switch the can0 setting above to be 500000, we get no such errors. Is there an issue with using the PX2 on 250 kbit/s baud rate, or is there something that needs to be done to not have this issue on 250?
