Introduction
The PCAN-Wireless Gateway allows the connection of different CAN
busses over IP networks. CAN frames are wrapped in TCP or UDP
message packets and then forwarded via the IP network from one
device to another.
The PCAN-Wireless Gateway provides one WLAN connection and
two High-speed CAN interfaces. The module is supplied in a plastic
case with two D-Sub connectors or a Tyco automotive connector.
The PCAN Gateway product family is configured via a convenient
web interface. Alternatively, the JSON interface allows access via
software. Both options provide status information and settings of
the devices, the various communication interfaces, message
forwarding, and filters.
