Issue Details

I am using USB-8506 for LIN communication. I am able to use classic checksum, but fail to use enhanced checksum. The checksum parameter is not able to change In NI-XNET database editor:

Solution

The checksum selection is based on the protocol version you configured in database. If the version is 2.0 or higher, the LIN Checksum will be enhanced; version lower than 2.0 such as 1.3 will be classic.
