API/Message Identifier

The API or Message Identifier is a 10-bit value that identifies a particular command or message type. These identifiers are unique for each Manufacturer + Device Type combination (so an API identifier that may be a ”Voltage Set“ for a Luminary Micro Motor Controller may be a ”Status Get“ for a CTR Electronics Motor Controller or Current Get for a CTR Power Distribution Module).

The Message identifier is further broken down into 2 sub-fields: the 6-bit API Class and the 4-bit API Index.

API Class

The API Class is a 6-bit identifier for an API grouping. Similar messages are grouped into a single API Class. An example of the API Classes for the Jaguar Motor Controller is shown in the table below.

API Index

The API Index is a 4-bit identifier for a particular message within an API Class. An example of the API Index values for the Jaguar Motor Controller Speed Control API Class is shown in the table below.

Device Number

Device Number is a 6-bit quantity indicating the number of the device of a particular type. Devices should default to device ID 0 to match other components of the FRC Control System. Device 0x3F may be reserved for device specific broadcast messages.

CAN addressing bit mapping.

Protected Frames

FRC CAN Nodes which implement actuator control capability (motor controllers, relays, pneumatics controllers, etc.) must implement a way to verify that the robot is enabled and that commands originate with the main robot controller (i.e. the roboRIO).

הודעות שידור (Broadcast)

Broadcast messages are messages sent to all nodes by setting the device type and manufacturer fields to 0. The API Class for broadcast messages is 0. The currently defined broadcast messages are shown in the table below:

Devices should disable immediately when receiving the Disable message (arbID 0). Implementation of other broadcast messages is optional.

Requirements for FRC CAN Nodes

For CAN Nodes to be accepted for use in the FRC System, they must:

  • Communicate using Arbitration IDs which match the prescribed FRC format:

    • A valid, issued CAN Device Type (per Table 1 - CAN Device Types)

    • A valid, issued Manufacturer ID (per Table 2 - CAN Manufacturer Codes)

    • API Class(es) and Index(s) assigned and documented by the device manufacturer

    • A user selectable device number if multiple units of the device type are intended to co-exist on the same network.

  • Support the minimum Broadcast message requirements as detailed in the Broadcast Messages section.

  • If controlling actuators, utilize a scheme to assure that the robot is issuing commands, is enabled, and is still present.

  • Provide software library support for LabVIEW, C++, and Java or arrange with FIRST® or FIRST’s Control System Partners to provide such interfaces.

Universal Heartbeat

The roboRIO provides a universal CAN heartbeat that any device on the bus can listen and react to. This heartbeat is sent every 20 ms. The heartbeat has a full CAN ID of 0x01011840 (which is the NI Manufacturer ID, RobotController type, Device ID 0 and API ID 0x061). It is an 8 byte CAN packet with the following bitfield layout.

If the System watchdog flag is set, motor controllers are enabled. If 100 ms has passed since this packet was received, the robot program can be considered hung, and devices should act as if the robot has been disabled.

Note that all fields except Enabled, Autonomous mode, Test mode, and System watchdog will contain invalid values until an arbitrary time after the Driver Station connects.
