7.4 CAN card
The optional CAN bus card from PEAK features two separate CAN buses connected together via a 9-
pin Sub-D connector. The two buses are galvanically isolated from each other and from the device’s
electrical system.
Standards: the card supports CAN FD and is backwards compatible with the CAN standard 2.0 A/B.
Transmission rate: max. 1 Mbit/s per bus.
Please note that the maximum bus length depends on the set transmission rate. Typical values with
correct termination:
