Frame Types
The ECAN module transmits various types of frames
which include data messages, or remote transmission
requests initiated by the user, as other frames that are
automatically generated for control purposes. The
following frame types are supported:
• Standard Data Frame:
which include data messages, or remote transmission
requests initiated by the user, as other frames that are
automatically generated for control purposes. The
following frame types are supported:
• Standard Data Frame:
A standard data frame is generated by a node when
the node wishes to transmit data. It includes an 11-bit
Standard Identifier (SID), but not an 18-bit Extended
Identifier (EID).

• Remote Frame:
• It is possible for a destination node to request the
• It is possible for a destination node to request the
data from the source. For this purpose, the
destination node sends a remote frame with an
identifier that matches the identifier of the
required data frame. The appropriate data source
node sends a data frame as a response to this
remote request.

fields: an error flag field and an error delimiter
field.

• Overload Frame:
• An overload frame can be generated by a node as
• An overload frame can be generated by a node as
a result of two conditions. First, the node detects a
dominant bit during interframe space which is an
illegal condition. Second, due to internal condi-
tions, the node is not yet able to start reception of
the next message. A node can generate a maxi-
mum of 2 sequential overload frames to delay the
start of the next message.
