Hardware Installation
2. Hardware Installation
NOTICE
Read the safety instructions at the beginning of this document carefully, before
you start with the hardware installation!
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage -
Risk of electric shock
due to unintentional contact with
uninsulated live parts with high voltages inside of the system into which the CAN-
PCIe/200 is to be integrated.
→ Disconnect all hazardous voltages (mains voltage) before opening the system.
→ Ensure the absence of voltage before starting any electrical work.
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.
→
→
To avoid this, please discharge the static electricity from your body
before
you touch
the CAN-PCIe/200.
Furthermore, you should prevent your clothes from touching the CAN-PCIe/200,
because your clothes might be electrostatically charged as well.
Procedure:
1.
Switch off your system and all connected peripheral devices (monitor, printer, etc.). Switch off
the connected CAN devices.
2.
Discharge your body as described above.
3.
Disconnect the system from the mains.
Make sure that no risk arises from the system into which the CAN-PCIe/200 shall be
inserted.
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage
Risk of electric shock
due to unintentional contact with uninsulated live parts with
high voltages.

→
→
→
Disconnect all hazardous voltages (mains voltage) before opening the system.
If the system does not have a flexible mains cable, but is directly connected to
mains, disconnect the power supply via the safety fuse and make sure that the fuse
cannot switch on again unintentionally (i.e. with caution label).
Ensure the absence of voltage before starting any electrical work.
Cover or block off adjacent live parts.
4.
Open the case if necessary.
5.
Select an open PCI Express slot and remove the slot cover at the back of the PC.
Unfasten the screw which fixes the slot cover and retain it for fixing the module afterwards.
The CAN module can be inserted into every PCI Express slot.
6.
Insert the CAN-PCIe/200 board into the selected PCI Express slot. Carefully push the board
down until it snaps into place.
7.
Attach the board.
Use the screw you removed from the slot cover in step 5.
8.
Close the system's case again.
