message buffers used for ABT, and define all the buffers as transmit message buffers by setting MT [2:0] bits to 000B.
Be sure to set the ID for each message buffer for ABT even when the same ID is being used for all the message
buffers. To use two or more IDs, set the ID of each message buffer by using the C0MIDLm and C0MIDHm registers.
Set the C0MDLCm and C0MDATA0m to C0MDATA7m registers before issuing a transmission request for the ABT
function.
TRQ bit does not have to be manipulated by software.
transmission is then started. When ABT is started, the TRQ bit in the first message buffer (message buffer 0) is
automatically set to 1. After transmission of the data of message buffer 0 has finished, TRQ bit of the next message
buffer, message buffer 1, is set automatically. In this way, transmission is executed successively.

register. The unit of the delay time is DBT (data bit time). DBT depends on the setting of the C0BRP and C0BTR
registers.
message buffers 0 to 7 are sequentially transmitted. When transmission of the data frame from message buffer 7 has
been completed, the ABTTRG bit is automatically cleared to 0 and the ABT operation is finished.

ABT stopped, by setting the RDY and ABTTRG bits to 1 by software. To not resume transmission from the message
buffer where ABT stopped, the internal ABT engine can be reset by setting the ABTCLR bit to 1 while ABT mode is
stopped and ABTTRG bit is cleared to 0. In this case, transmission is started from message buffer 0 if the ABTCLR
bit is cleared to 0 and then the ABTTRG bit is set to 1.
do so, the IE bit of the C0MCTRLm register of each message buffer except the last message buffer needs to be
cleared (0).

ABT message buffer whose transmission is currently held pending and the transmission ID of the message buffers
other than those used by the ABT function.
