SNIP_CLASSIC_FRIF_SECTION_7_7_1_FlexRay_NM_Main_Function_structure

7.7.1 FlexRay NM-Main Function structure The FlexRay NM MainFunction will hold the "automated" functionality of the FlexRay NM - as there is the periodic transmission of NM-Messages, the processing of received NM-Messages and the periodic processing of the FlexRay NM state machine (at the boundary between two NM-Repetition Cycles). [SWS_FrNm_00010] ⌈The FrNm module shall call the FlexRay Interface function FrIf_Transmit to transmit NM-Vote and NM-Data if the transmission of cyclic NM-messages is started.⌋() Note: The FlexRay Interface module shall call the FrNm module function FrNm_TxConfirmation with E_OK when a NM-message is successfully transmitted and a transmit confirmation is supported and configured within the FlexRay Interface. Note: The FlexRay Interface module shall call the FrNm module function FrNm_RxIndication when a NM-message is received. It is up to the implementation as to how the FrNm module is to handle the data from the NM-message. It can be immediately processed (to reduce the memory consumption), or it can be stored to be available to be processed (to reduce computing time). [SWS_FrNm_00375] ⌈The FrNm module shall retrieve the current FlexRay communication cycle via the API FrIf_GetGlobalTime().⌋()
