Canbus int vs word

ESPHome
1

Hello,

I am using an MCP2551 connected to a can bus. I am receiving in variables fine. However, the device also specifies that it sends in word. This does not seem to be a string.

This talks about The variables x (of type std::vector<uint8_t> )
THe doc i have states:

typedef struct tDD_BMS_RawData;
{
	word    wData[4]; // cell voltages in tenths of mv
}

Any help or direction fwd would be great.

Thanks
Dennis
