Design a database to read the CAN messages that each board produces.
A file that can be used by Vector CANalizer and Matlab to read the CAN data
All CANdb are stored and saved on github. The outline for the database was laid out on speadsheets. Based on how CAN works, each device has it's own node. Each node has 4 sets of messages that are 64 bits long. If there isn't enough space a board can be assigned additional nodes. This is how we were able to have the BMS' able to send all of its messages. Nodes 0-4 are reserved for the motor controller. If there are any messages to those node outside of the MC then it.
