Juan,

 

    A further clarification after re-reading your email.

 

   The dongle is the Lawicel CAN232 device.  It is simply

   an RS232 to CAN adapter and is not capable of generating

   any CAN traffic on its own.

 

   The CDNC software when configured to do so will tell the CAN232

   what packet content to send over the CAN bus and

   when.

 

   So, the way to think about this is there is no traffic/hearbeat

   unless the CDNC software is generating it.

 

   Set the heartbeat rate and then enable the hearbeat in CDNC

   and you should have traffic preventing Watchdog resets.

 

   This help clarifiy?

 

Regards,

Stephen
