ABSTRACT:
A method and system for communicating over a controller area network (CAN) bus (14-22) enables messages to be routed from a controlling software component (46-50) to one or more processor-enabled peripheral devices (24-44) on a discrete basis over the CAN bus (14-22) to control the plurality of processor-enabled peripheral devices (24-44). By overlaying a hardware device protocol on a CAN bus protocol to realize CAN bus messaging, the controlling software components (46-50) can discretely communicate with the external processor-controlled peripheral devices (24-44) using the multiple multi-drop CAN busses (14-22). In addition, a method and system for handling registration of a processor-enabled peripheral device (24-44) with a controlling software component (46-50) includes creating a logical connection between the processor-enabled peripheral device (24-44) and the controlling software component (46-50) and breaking the logical connection between the processor-enabled peripheral device (24-44) and the controlling software component (46-50) if the processor-enabled peripheral device (24-44) is removed and re-introduced or if the controlling software component (46-50) is reset for re-registration purposes to provide plug-and-play capabilities and dynamic registration of processor-enabled peripheral devices (24-44).
