3.1 Data link layer 3.1.1

A series of data bits that make up a complete message. An ordered bit field, which is necessary for the CAN protocol used to transmit data, starting with the start of frame (SOF) and ending with the end of the frame (EOF). Sends or receives an instance of a parameter group and its parameter data. Note: The sending of a message may require the exchange of one or more "CAN data frames". The identification part of the CAN arbitration field. CAN data frame using a 29-bit identifier, which is defined in the CAN2.0B specification. A 3-bit field in the identifier, which is used to set the arbitration priority of the transmission process. The highest priority is level 0 and the lowest priority is level 7. […]

4 Abbreviations

The following abbreviations apply to this document.

5 General principles of category A systems

5.2 The CAN communication network, between the charger and the vehicle, shall be composed of two nodes: the charger and the vehicle. In order to achieve the compatibility solution of Appendix G of GB/T 18487.1-2023, adaptor nodes can be added to the communication network; however, between each node, there shall be no conflicts in addresses, PGNs, etc. 5.3 Data information transmission adopts the format of low byte sent first. 5.4 The current value during vehicle charging is negative. In public stations, when the vehicle/charger receives a charging current value, which is outside the range of -400 A ~ 0 A, the charging process shall be exited. In private stations, the charger and vehicle can be subject to the negotiation, according to private agreement. 5.5 In public stations, messages not specified in this document shall not appear on the communication network, between chargers and vehicles. […]

6 Category A system physical layer

The CAN communication bus network's physical layer, which is used in this document, shall comply with the requirements in SAE J1939-11:2006 or SAE J1939-15:2018. In this document, the communication between the charger and the vehicle shall use an independent CAN bus; the communication rate between the charger and the vehicle adopts 250 kbit/s. The shielded twisted pair shall meet the requirements of Table 7 in SAE J1939-11:2006; the unshielded twisted pair shall meet the requirements of Table 2 in SAE J1939-11:2006; the terminal resistance shall meet the requirements of 5.2.3 in SAE J1939-11:2006.

Note: In special occasions with harsh communication environments (such as commercial vehicle charging stations with long communication distances), the communication rate of 50 kbit/s is adopted, after agreement between the equipment manufacturer and the vehicle manufacturer.

7 Category A system data link layer

7.1 Frame format

Equipment using this document shall use the 29-bit identifier of the CAN extended frame; the corresponding definition of each bit allocation shall comply with the relevant provisions in SAE J1939-21:2006.

7.2 Protocol data unit (PDU)

Each CAN data frame contains a single protocol data unit (PDU), see Table 1. The protocol data unit consists of seven parts, namely priority, extended data page, data page, PDU format, PDU specific format, source address, data field. Note 1: P is priority, which is set from the highest 0 to the lowest 7. Note 2: EDP is extended data page, which is reserved for later extension. In this file, it is 0. Note 3: DP is data page, which is an auxiliary page used to select parameter group description. In this file, it is 0. […]

7.4 Parameter group number (PGN)

The second byte of PGN is the PDU format (PF) value; the high byte and low byte bits are both 00H.

8 Category A system application layer

8.2 Use PGN to number the parameter group. Each node identifies the content of the messages is established and closed, through the connection management capability of the transmission protocol function. See the provisions of 7.5 of this document. 8.3 Use periodic sending and event-driven methods to send data. 8.4 If multiple PGN data need to be sent to implement a function, all the defined multiple PGN messages must be received, to determine whether the function is successfully sent. 8.5 When defining a new parameter group, try to put parameters with the same function, parameters with the same or similar transmission cycle, parameters belonging to the same subsystem in the same parameter group. At the same time, the new parameter group must make full use of the data width in 8 bytes; try to put related parameters in the same group; consider extendibility; […]

9 Overall charging process of category A system

The entire charging process includes six phases: physical connection completion, lowvoltage auxiliary power-on, charging handshake phase, charging parameter configuration phase, charging phase, charging end phase, as shown in Figure 1. After the physical connection and the low-voltage auxiliary power-on is completed, the two parties start communication. At each phase of communication, if the charger and the vehicle do not receive each other's message OR do not receive the correct message within the specified time, it is determined to be timeout (timeout means that the other party's complete data packet or correct data packet is not received within the specified time), the communication process shall comply with the requirements of Appendix A. When a timeout occurs, the vehicle or charger sends an error message specified in 10.5. The charging end process shall comply with the relevant provisions of B4.6 and B4.7 in GB/T 18487.1-2023. […]

10 Message classification of category A system

10.1 Charging handshake phase

The charging handshake phase is divided into a handshake start phase and a handshake identification phase. After the physical connection of the vehicle interface is completed AND the charger successfully closes the electronic lock, the low-voltage auxiliary power supply circuit is turned on, entering the handshake start phase to send handshake messages and perform self-check of the charger. If the self-check passes, the two parties enter the handshake identification phase and exchange the identities of the vehicle and the charger, as well as other necessary information. If the self-check fails, the charger sends the charger suspension message, which is specified in 10.3. The message at charging handshake phase shall comply with the requirements of Table 3.

10.3 Charging phase

After the charging parameter configuration phase is completed, the charger and vehicle enter the charging phase. […]

11 Message format and content of category A system

11.1 Message at charging handshake phase

11.1.2 PGN9984 Vehicle handshake message (BHM)

Message function: After the vehicle receives the PGN9728 charger handshake message, it sends the BHM message and sends it periodically, at a time interval of 250 ms. SPN2601 is only used to output the cable insulation monitoring voltage basis, when the charger performs insulation self-check (charger self-check shall comply with the requirements of B.4.3 in GB/T 18487.1-2023). The PGN9984 message format is as shown in Table 9.

Among them, SPN2601 vehicle end insulation monitoring allowed total voltage (V): data resolution: 0.1 V/bit, 0 V offset.

11.1.3 PGN256 charger recognition message (CRM)

Message function: When the charger completes and passes the self-check, it stops sending CHM messages and starts sending CRM messages, in a 250 ms cycle. Before receiving the BRM message, SPN2560 = 0x00; after receiving the BRM message, SPN2560 = 0xAA. […]

11.2 Message at parameter configuration phase

11.3 Messages at charging phase

11.3.6 PGN5632 power battery temperature message (BMT)

Message function: During the charging phase, the vehicle sends the power battery temperature value periodically, at intervals of 10 seconds. […]

11.4 Message at charging end phase

11.5 Error message
