The [DEVICEINFORMATIONDX] Section Of The INI File

For each device listed in the [VendorInformation->Devices  ] section of the Vendor INI file, the following table describes each of the parameters that will be found in the [DeviceInformationdx  ] section of the Vendor INI file:

[DeviceInformationdx] Indicates the start of the [DeviceInformationdx] section for device dx. Field must not be empty.
DeviceID=[number] Where [number] represents a value ranging between 0 and 255 to identify the device. Field must not be empty.
DeviceDescription=[string, p] Where [string] represents a description of the device. This description is normally the name of the product listed on the device. When the device can be connected to several ports, the value of [p] is also specified after a comma. The letter [p] represents the port the device is connected to. The table below lists the acceptable values for p. In the DeviceDescription part of the "string", there can be no commas except for the comma delimiting the COM port (p). Field must not be empty.

DeviceName=[string] Where [string] represents the vendor-specific device name. Typically this has been the DeviceDescription without the "," and the port (p). Field must not be empty.
DeviceParams=[string] Where [string] represents vendor-specific parameters, if any. Field can be empty. This field is for VDA vendors to set device parameters to modify the device connection.
MultiCANChannels=[integer] The number of simultaneous CAN channels supported for this device. If device supports CAN, but not multiple CAN channels, this will be 1. If device does not support CAN, this will be 0. VDAs as of RP1210D are assumed to only have a maximum of one FTCAN and one SWCAN per VDA device. This entry does not apply to those. Field must not be empty.
MultiJ1939Channels=[integer] The number of simultaneous J1939 channels supported for this device. If device supports J1939, but not multiple J1939 channels, default this to 1. If device does not support J1939, default to zero. Field must not be empty.
MultiISO15765Channels=[integer] The number of simultaneous ISO15765 channels supported for this device. If device supports ISO15765, but not multiple ISO15765 channels, default this to 1. If device does not support ISO15765, default to zero. Field must not be empty.
VDAImage=[X.ICO|X.PNG|X.JPG|X. BMP] This string denotes the path to a Windows image in ICO, PNG, JPG, or BMP format. This will allow an application the ability to display a VDA Vendor's image of the adapter the API represents. Recommended setting is 256x256 pixels and that the background be transparent. This field is optional.
