Enhanced Toolbox and Block Library Performance The toolbox now transmits, receives, and processes messages at a faster rate. The Transmit and Receive blocks transmit and receive messages at a faster rate. Removal of the receiveRaw Function The receiveRaw function will be removed in a future release. In earlier software versions, the receiveRaw function expedited receive capability with minimal processing time and maximized message throughput. With enhanced toolbox performance this capability is no longer required. Performance of the standard receive function is significantly increased and you can use it to receive all messages. 11-2 Compatibility Considerations The receiveRaw function will be removed in a future release. You will see a warning when you use this function. Use the receive function instead. New Signals Property for CAN Message Functions The Signals property displays each physical signal as defined for a CAN message in the CAN database. The Signals property is not applicable if you are not using a CAN database. Signals displayed by the Signals property replaces access to direct signal property display of CAN messages. It has also increased the toolbox performance and the throughput of the message receive and transmit functions. Compatibility Considerations Direct signal properties will no longer appear in a message output. Use the new Signals property to access physical signal values. Update your code if you are using a CAN database and direct signal properties. Refer to the Signals property for more information. It is recommended that you update your code and use the new Signals property because all access to direct signal properties will be removed in a future release. If you cannot update your code at this time, you can use the canMessageCompatibilityMode function to restore access to direct signal properties.
