Args:

channel_name (str): The name of the CANFD channel to transmit the frame on. frame_id (int): The ID of the CANFD frame to transmit. payload (FramePayload): The payload of the CAN frame to transmit. bit_rate_switch (bool, optional): Whether to use the bit rate switch (BRS) feature

True -> BRS.ON False -> BRS.OFF Defaults to False.

Returns:

bool: True if succeeded

classmethod start_transmit_cyclic_frame(channel_name: str, frame_id: int, payload: List, cycle: int)
classmethod stop_transmit_cyclic_frame(channel_name: str, frame_id: int)
transmitter
class mtf.network_port.bus_transmitter.LinTransmitter
transmitter
classmethod transmit_frame(channel_name: str, frame_id: int, payload: List)

Abstract method that transmits a frame.

Raises:

NotImplementedError: This method must be implemented by a subclass.

classmethod wake_up_lin_bus(channel_name: str)

Wakes up the LIN bus on the associated channel (Async Wake up sending). args:

channel_name (str)

Returns:

bool: True if the LIN bus wakes up successfully, False otherwise.

classmethod get_state(channel_name: str)

get the LIN bus state on the associated channel. args:

channel_name (str)

Returns:
EnumInit

Operational : node is awake Sleep : node in sleep mode

class mtf.network_port.bus_transmitter.FlexrayTransmitter
transmitter
classmethod transmit_frame(channel_name: str, frame_id: str, payload: ~typing.List, communication_channel: ~mtf.enum_types.FRCommunicationChannel = <FRCommunicationChannel.A: 0>, transmission_mode: ~mtf.enum_types.TransmissionMode = TransmissionMode.SingleShot)

Abstract method that transmits a frame.

Raises:

NotImplementedError: This method must be implemented by a subclass.

classmethod stop_transmit(channel_name: str, frame_id: str | int, communication_channel: ~mtf.enum_types.FRCommunicationChannel = <FRCommunicationChannel.A: 0>)
classmethod activate_wake_up(channel_name: str, do_wake_up: bool)

Activate wake up for a given channel args:

channel_name (str): The channel name do_wake_up (bool) Whether to wake up the FLEXRAY bus when the bus sleeps automatically

Returns:

bool: True if the FLEXRAY bus wakes up successfully, False otherwise.

class mtf.network_port.bus_transmitter.EthernetTransmitter
transmitter
lock
classmethod transmit_frame(channel_name: str, payload: List)

Abstract method that transmits a frame.

Raises:

NotImplementedError: This method must be implemented by a subclass.

classmethod transmit_frame_queue(channel_name: str, timestamped_queue: List[tuple[int, List[int]]])

transmit queue of packets with respect to the delays between successive frames. timestamped_queue contains list tuples, ech tuple contains:

first the delay between the previous message and the current message second the payload to be sent

note:

first delay means we will send the packets immediately or after certain delay. delay is in nanoseconds

[(0,[1,2,3]), (2,[1,2,3]) …..]

classmethod configure_frame_queue(channel_name: str, timestamped_queue: List[tuple[int, List[int]]])

Configure an ethernet frame queue transmission by specifying the dedicated channel and timestamped_queue.

Parameters:
  • channel_name – name of the ethernet channel to be configured.

  • timestamped_queue

    contains list tuples, each tuple contains:
    • first the delay between the previous message and the current message

    • second the payload to be sent

    note:

    first delay means we will send the packets immediately or after certain delay. delay is in nanoseconds

Returns:

True if the queue transmission is configured. False otherwise.

Examples: >>> MtfBase.bus_manager.bus_transmitter(BusType.ETHERNET).configure_frame_queue(“ethernet_channel_name”, [(0,[1,2,3]), (2,[1,2,3]) …..])

classmethod start_frame_queue(channel_name: str)

Start transmission of the ethernet queue associated with the given channel. For the transmission to occur, it must first be configured.

Parameters:

channel_name – name of the ethernet channel.

Returns:

True if the queue transmission task is triggered. False otherwise.

Examples: >>> MtfBase.bus_manager.bus_transmitter(BusType.ETHERNET).start_frame_queue(“ethernet_channel_name”)
