Solution
You can select XNET signal from the database if you write a string in a correct format, then you can convert string to XNET I/O using
XNET String To IO Name.vi.
The name of NI-XNET signal is composed of 4 different parts, just as below:
- NI-XNET signal: CAN Frame name.CAN signal name/nXNET Database name.CAN cluster name
For XNET frames and clusters, names are made with the following syntaxes.
- NI-XNET frame: CAN Frame name\nXNET Database name.CAN cluster name
- NI-XNET cluster: XNET Database name.CAN cluster name
For example, if you want to choose CANCyclicSignal1 from NIXNET_example database file, you need to write a string as CANCyclicFrame1.CANCyclicSignal1/nNIXNET_eample.CAN_Cluster.
XNET String To IO Name.vi is not in the function palette, so you have to copy that function for the usage from the NI-XNET shipping example
