Mag Align function on OPENIMU300RI

Hello,

I have been working with the OPENIMU300RI eval kit for some time but I am struggling to make the mag align functionality work. I figured out which CAN message to send and I indeed get a reply from the IMU but I don’t know what the bytes mean. I haven't seen any document explaining how it works on the 300RI. Is there a way to make the IMU send a continuous message with the progress of the procedure once it is started?

Thanks.

The request and response format is provided on this page:

The status of mag alignment needs to be periodically polled while system does full circle (plus some)
After alignment finishes the values can be permanently stored

Thank you Andrey !

Is there a way to abort the aligment?
