We just bought a DT80M and CANGate. To test the CANGate, I put together a one-row schedule in Delogger and downloaded it to the logger.

Unfortunately, Delogger's "Errors" window keeps saying "Serial sensor scan error at control position 13". The RS232 Rx & Tx lights do blink on the CANGate, so something is happening. And while the configured message is not on the CAN bus (my CAN msgs are non-std), using the SNOOP command I was able to verify that there is some CAN traffic visible to the CANGate.

Any help would be much appreciated. Here's my program:

Good morning tbarham,

You actually tell us why this is failing. "And while the configured msg is not on the CAN bus (my CAN msgs are non-std)"

You have requested a standard J1939 message which as you state is not there. So it is trying to read a message that is never being sent and there for the error is telling us the message can not be found.

Cheers,
Roger
