RealDash CAN XML format now has new optional parameter for ‘frame’ and ‘value’ sections; signed=“true”. If this parameter is set for frame, all values in frame are handled by RealDash as signed values. If parameter is set for value, that specific value is handled as signed. This new parameter makes it easier to send signed data without the need to offset the data with ‘conversion’ parameter.

This version has an improvement to error handling of CAN frame parsing over ‘RealDash CAN’ or ‘CAN/LIN adapter’ connection types. As interrupt driven CAN systems may write CAN frame to serial while previous write is still in progress causing frame bytes to interleave into the serial stream. RealDash attempts to detect this situation and discard interleaved frames.
