Programmable 6-Channel
Router for CAN and CAN FD with I/O and Data
Logger
With six channels, the PCAN-Router Pro FD links the data traffic of
modern CAN FD and classic CAN buses. the router is equipped with an
analog input and four digital I/Os. The CAN messages can be recorded
on
the internal memory or on an inserted memory card and later read out
via
the USB connection.
The PCAN-Router FD
allows the connection to two CAN FD or CAN busses.
Based on a ARM Cortex M4F
microcontroller, the module‘s behavior and the data routing
between both
CAN FD channels is freely programmable. In particular, the module
allows
the conversion from CAN to CAN FD or vice versa. This makes it easy to
accomplish the integration of CAN FD applications into existing CAN
2.0
networks.
Using the programming library and the GNU compiler for C and C++, a
firmware is created and then transferred to the module via CAN.
The PCAN-Router DR has
two High-speed CAN channels. Their
bit rate is adjusted with a rotary switch on the device front. The
module forwards the message traffic bi-directionally 1:1 between both
connected CAN busses.
The ports of the device are isolated against each other and against
the
power supply with at least 500 V. Furthermore, CAN 1 has a separation
voltage of up to 5 kV conforming with IEC 60601-1.
The PCAN-RS-232 FD is a
programmable module for
converting data traffic between
its RS-232 interface and CAN FD
connection. For example,
machines, PLCs, sensors and
actuators with a serial
interface can be flexibly
integrated into classic CAN or
modern CAN FD buses.
The behavior of the
PCAN-RS-232 FD can be programmed
freely for specific
applications. The firmware is
created using the included
development package with GNU
compiler for C and C++ and is
then transferred to the module
via CAN.
Various programming
examples facilitate the
implementation of own solutions.
On delivery the PCAN-RS-232 FD
is provided with a standard
firmware that routes from CAN FD
to RS-232 and vice versa. It
allows to configure the data
transfer as well as the hardware
with serial control commands.
The corresponding source code is
included as an example in the
scope of supply.
