    Improvements:

    • Calculation of J1939 Auto-values no longer depends on a match of the PGN to revert to the same behavior as in PCAN-Explorer 6.4 and older

    2020-12-04 - Version 6.4.1 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.4.1

    Improvements:

    • J1939 DTC Monitor: Active DTC entries for which no corresponding DM01 message was received within the expected time frame (2500 ms) are displayed greyed-out

    Bug fixes:

    • The J1939 DTC Monitor files were also installed under Windows 7 and 8 if a 'Complete' installation was performed, although the application only supports Windows 10

    2020-10-30 - Version 6.4.0 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.4.0

    Improvements:

    • J1939 database updated (2020-07)
    • New possibility to reject incoming TPCM.RTS messages for specific PGNs so that a TPCM.ConnAbort is sent to reject the data transfer
    • Automation interface: New property PCANJ1939Node.PGNsToRejectOnRTS
    • Value 127 of SPN 1216 (Occurrence Count) is now correctly displayed as 'Not available'

    • When specifying a Manufacturer Code for the J1939 NAME field, a new Lookup dialog box can be displayed to search and select a Manufacturer Code from a list of all registered manufacturers

    Bug fixes:

    • If the properties of a J1939 connection were shown in the Properties window and the connection claimed an address because a Request for Address Claimed message was received, the property values in the Property window were not updated
    • When a DA Global request for a PDU2 PGN was received, multipacket messages in the Transmit List that were configured for a specific Destination Address (not the Global Address) were also sent as a response to that request
    • If a J1939PG symbol with a specific length but with multipacket enabled was defined, and the first received message had a length of 8 bytes or less, an internal data buffer was created that could only hold a maximum of 8 data bytes. When a longer message was received later, only question marks were displayed for the values of those Variables that were located beyond data byte 7

    2019-12-02 - Version 6.3.4 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.3.4

    Bug fixes:

    • Auto-calculated checksum values for messages TC3, ENGSA, and ENGSC were incorrect

    Changes:

    • If the SPNConversionMethod (SPN 1706) of a DM01 DTC was set to 1 (see J1939-73, 5.7.1.13), the SuspectParameterNumber (SPN 1214) variable in the same DTC was decoded/encoded using SPN conversion method version 1 (pure Motorola format). Now version 3 is used by default for encoding/decoding SPNs

    2019-08-01 - Version 6.3.3 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.3.3

    Bug fixes:

    • Too large values for TotalMessageSize variable in TPCM.BAM or TPCM.RTS messages caused an application freeze or crash. Wrong values in TotalMessageSize variable now triggers a TPCM.ConnAbort message with abort reason 9 for RTS/CTS sessions, and a silent abort for BAM sessions

    2019-06-07 - Version 6.3.1 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.3.1

    Improvements:

    • New possibility to receive and trace Error Frames with J1939 connections
    • J1939 database updated (2019-04)

    Bug fixes:

    • Since version 6.2.0 the default values for the following J1939 parameters were not correctly initialized:
      • CTS: Number of accepted packets (should be 255)
      • Number of Re-CTS (should be 3)
      • RTS: Maximum number of packets (should be 255)
      • Number of retries (should be 3)
      • Interpacket time (should be 50 ms)
    • A new Reset button in the Options dialog box on the J1939 page allows to reset these 5 parameters to their default values

    2018-12-13 - Version 6.2.2 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.2.2

    Improvements:

    • Received BAM multipacket messages are now reassembled even if monitoring is not active and no address is claimed
    • J1939 database updated (2018-08)
    • Support for 46 new auto-calculated values from the updated J1939 database 2018-08
    • New possibility to sort the J1939 Auto-values lists in Options and Project Settings dialog boxes

    Bug fixes:

    • Auto-calculated checksum of J1939 symbols TC3, ENGSC, and ENGSA was only 4 bits in size instead of 8 bits

    2018-07-20 - Version 6.2.0 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.2.0

    Improvements:

    • New feature to automatically calculate J1939 rolling counters and checksums when transmitting the PGNs TSC1, XBR, AEBS2, TC3, SAS, CN, ENGSC, and ENGSA

    2017-06-09 - Version 6.0.12 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.12

    Bug fixes:

    • The industry group drop-down list of the J1939 NAME field in the Properties window was empty and no industry group could be selected
    • If no data length was specified for a J1939PG multipacket symbol, any variable located beyond data byte 7 was not initialized with its default value
    • When the last J1939 connection was removed from the project, the message list columns were not updated to the non-J1939 column configuration
    • Sending a J1939 message by assigning a signal value, e.g. in a VBS macro, did not set the message type of the automatically created transmit message correctly, the message did not have the J1939 tag
    • String variables with a length greater than 8 bytes in multipacket J1939 symbols were only decoded when the variable had an SPN value assigned

    Changes:

    • J1939 symbols are now only assigned to messages that have the J1939 message type (which show a J1939 tag in the Type column). Previously, J1939 symbols were also assigned to 29-bit messages, for example when the protocol of the connection was changed from CAN to J1939 and the Receive/Transmit lists already contained 29-bit messages

    2017-04-07 - Version 6.0.11 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.11

    Bug fixes:

    • When a J1939 transmit message was edited, the Priority field in the Edit Message dialog box was not correctly initialized so it could contain an incorrect value
    • J1939 database fixed: SPNs 695, 696, and 897 were missing in message TSC1

    2016-12-12 - Version 6.0.9 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.9

    Improvements:

    • The PGN field in the Edit Message dialog box is now editable when a custom J1939 transmit message is created
    • J1939 messages have their own icon in the Type column of transmit lists, and messages that require the transport protocol for transmission have an additional mark
    • J1939 database updated (2016-11)

    2016-10-13 - Version 6.0.5 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.5

    Improvement:

    • J1939 database updated (2016-07)

    2016-09-02 - Version 6.0.3 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.3

    Improvements:

    • The J1939 database now includes SLOT values according to J1939-71 Appendix A. SPN and SLOT value assignments are used to show range names according to J1939-71 chapter 5.1.5

    Bug fixes:

    • If the system was not restarted for a long time, the J1939 Add-in returned wrong timestamps so that cyclic J1939 messages (non-multipacket) could no longer be transmitted
    • Transport protocol read session were refused by sending a TCPM.Abort message even if the connection was in monitoring mode and/or the claimed address did not correspond to the incoming request

    2016-06-28 - Version 6.0.2 - Part of PCAN-Explorer 6.0.2

    • J1939 database updated (2016-03)
