Data can be passed between a client and a DcAN I/O device through the DcAN I/O Interface. Packets are sent through a TCP/IP port. The following rules apply:

  • The I/O device shall listen for TCP/IP connections on IP port number 33001
  • A maximum of 3 clients can simultaneously connect to the DcAN I/O Interface port
  • All elements of each packet shall be in network byte order

The following sections define the packets that are valid for the DcAN I/O Interface


I2C Read Request

  • Each element of the I2C Read Request Packet is a 16 bit unsigned integer
  • The first 16 bit word of the packet represents the unique identifier and must be equal to 0x301
  • An I2C Read Response Packet with the requested data will be sent back to the client in response to each I2C Read Request


Byte Offset Element
0 0x301
2 Request ID
4 # Bytes to Read
6 I2C Address

I2C Read Response

  • Each element of the I2C Read Response Packet is a 16 bit unsigned integer
  • The first 16 bit word of the packet represents the unique identifier and must be equal to 0x302
  • An I2C Read Response Packet is sent to the client in response to an I2C Read Request


Byte Offset Element
0 0x302
2 Request ID
4 # Bytes Returned
6 Data Returned from I2C
