CAN Messaging:

All channels are 16 bit signed Motorola style.
Accelerations are transmitted in G per bit with a resolution of 0.001.
Angular rates are transmitted in hertz with a resolution of 0.001.
(multiple by 360 for deg/s)
Transmission rate for 1 Mbps and 500 Kbps CAN speed is
500Hz for acceleration, 125Hz for angular rates.
Transmission rate for 250 Kbps and 125 Kbps CAN speed is
166Hz for acceleration, 100Hz for angular rates.
