Voltage Supply of External Devices
A 5-Volt supply can optionally be routed to pin 1 of a D-Sub
connector (independently for each connector) by setting solder
jumpers on the circuit board of the PCAN-Router Pro. Thus, devices
with low power consumption (e.g. bus converters) can be directly
supplied via the D-Sub connector. The current output is limited to
100 mA for each connector.
Attention!
Risk of short circuit!
If the option described in this
section is activated, you may only connect or disconnect CAN
