Get values from slave VESC

Hello,

I'm working on my dual electric motor boat and pretty much everything works except for one thing. How do i get values from the slave VESC?

I have an Arduino that talks UART to the master VESC and then the second is connected using the CAN-bus. I can control both motors perfectly using the following code:

UART.setDuty(LeftMotorDuty, LEFT_BLDC);
UART.setDuty(RigthMotorDuty);

I can also get values (like rpm, amps and so on) from the master VESC. The question is how to get values also from the second VESC?

Sorry, it was simple when i used the correct library. I was not using SolifGeeks, but now I have switched to that and now it works.
