7.
Secure the module.
Please use the screw removed from the plug-in cover for this (see step 5).
7.1 Only for more than two CAN-interfaces:
Install the slot sheet with the DSUB-connectors for CAN-interfaces 2 (and 3) and secure it with
the screw (see step 5.1). Plug the connectors of the flat ribbon cables into the post connectors on
board: The cable of the lower DSUB-connectors into X821, and the cable of the upper DSUB-
connector into X831.
Attention:
The flat ribbon cables must
not
be plugged into post connectors X300 or X601!
Risk of damage!
8.
Close the PC.
Secure the case with the according screws at the back.
9.
Connect the CAN-bus.
Please remember that the CAN-bus has to be terminated at both ends. esd offers T-connectors and
terminators. Additionally, the CAN-GND-signal has to be grounded at
exactly one
point in the
CAN-network. Therefore the CAN-termination connectors have got a grounding contact. A CAN-
device whose CAN-interface is not electrically insulated corresponds to the grounding of the
CAN-GND.
The first CAN-interface (CAN-network 0) is connected by means of the lower DSUB-connector
(X701), and the second CAN-interface (CAN-network 1) is connected by means of the upper
DSUB-connecter (X711).
If applicable: The third CAN-interface (CAN-network 2) is connected by means of the lower
DSUB-connector and the additional slot sheet, and the fourth CAN-interface (CAN-network 3)
is connected by means of the upper DSUB-connector.
10. Connect your PC to mains again.
11. Switch on the PC, the peripheral devices and the other CAN-bus devices.
12. End of hardware installation.
For the software installation an installation program is available which is described in the software
manual of the module called ‘CAN-API, Software Tools and Installation Notes’..
