Description
u8_request_peers_name_ident() – sends requests to the communication partner for its name of the device and the identification of its can2ser-channel. When we receive the answers then this information can be retrieved with the functions s_get_peers_DevName(), s_get_peers_ident_data() or toString().
Syntax
myExampleSerial.u8_request_peers_name_ident();
Parameters
None
Returns
uint8_t – 0: Error while sending the request on the can bus
1: OK
Example Code
The following example send the request and prints the received ‘name’ and ‘ident’ of the CAN2SER interface of the peer.
void setup()
{
// Wait for the PC can2ser-monitor to send handshakes
while(!Serial) {;}
Serial.println("Request and print the name");
Serial.println("and channel identifier of the CAN2SER peer");
// Send out the request
Serial.u8_request_peers_name_ident();
// give the PC some time to answer
delay(100);
}
void loop ()
{
Serial.print("Connected to: '"+ Serial.s_get_peers_DevName());
Serial.println("' - channel identifier: '" + Serial.s_get_peers_ident_data() +"'");
delay(2000);
Serial.println("---- using toString() -----");
Serial.println(Serial.toString());
delay(2000);
