2.8 COM-Server
A COM-Server is implemented in addition to the DDE-services. It helps the program
to be gated or controlled by other applications. Besides accessing configurationspecific
data it is also possible to control the measurement. You can also call CAPL
functions, read signal values, and both read and write access environment variables.
Control cam either be realized by COM-ready script environments (ActiveX Scripting:
VBScript, JScript, Perl, ...) or by stand-alone applications, which can be written with
RAD development environments (Visual Basic, Delphi, ...) or in C/C++.
Please see the Online-Help for a more detailed description of the COM-Server.
2.9 Troubleshooting
See section 2.10 for a list of error messages occurring during initialization or during a
measurement. In this section tips are offered for handling problems of a general nature.
CANoe will not start
CFG file destroyed?
Often it is helpful to delete the active configuration file MYCONFIG.CFG. First,
the file should be backed up under a different name so that its contents are not
lost. After the problem has been cleared up it can be renamed back to
MYCONFIG.CFG.
CANoe runs too slowly
Power managers, which are particularly common on notebook computers, may
not be installed for CANoe operation. Among other things, the power manager
deprives the application of CPU for long periods of time. Therefore, transmit
times are incorrect and messages can be lost when a power manager is installed.
To remove the power manager from your system, please compare the
instructions in the installation guide of your hardware.
For less powerful computers it may also be advisable to reduce the resolution of
the system clock. The time stamps for messages may then be less accurate,
but fewer demands are placed on computer CPU. To do this, enter the following
line in section [PCBOARD] of the CAN.INI file:
Timerrate = 200
or under some circumstances even the value:
Timerrate = 400
These correspond to time resolutions of 2 or 4 milliseconds, respectively.
