CANFD data length not OK if longer then 8 Byte #29

Hi All, I tested the CANFD and it works very well, but when the Data is longer then 8 Bytes maybe 24, then on the bus are only 8 Bytes. For example: msg.len = 24; -> CAN-Bus shows only 8 Bytes

Thanks for the good work!

Thank you for your answer! I tried it and it works very well! How can I find this documentation and how can I calculate the example above? Is 896 Bytes the max value? Then I have to divide it by 8, 16, 32 or 64. Is that right? Thanks for all!

The mailbox has to support the size you are using, by default each mailbox is 8 bytes for 64 mailboxes. The more bytes you need, the more mailboxes it consumes. So at 64 byte mailboxes among 2 memory regions, that leaves you a total of 14 mailboxes. The amount of mailboxes available for a specific size is returned by the same function setRegions(). It should be in the readme on this repo
