Installing the Gateway
Do the following to connect the PCAN-Wireless Gateway DR to
an IP network (WLAN):
1.
Mount the PCAN-Wireless Gateway DR at the appropriate
position on the DIN rail by placing it at the top of the rail and
snapping it to the bottom.
2.
Connect each of the two CAN ports with the affiliated CAN
network.
Note:
A High-speed CAN bus needs to be electrically termi-
nated on both ends using resistors of 120
Ω
. The device
does not have an internal termination.
3.
Connect the PCAN-Wireless Gateway DR to a suitable power
supply (8 - 30 V DC).
The PCAN-Gateway starts automatically. When the Status LED is
blinking green the device is ready and the current configuration is
executed. After the start, the PCAN-Gateway automatically connects
to the IP network.
Enter the previously assigned IP address in the browser address
bar. If no connection can be established, an error may have been
made when entering the WLAN connection data. In this case, a reset
to factory defaults is needed to reactivate the Ad-Hoc mode and
repeat the configuration process (see section 4.2 on page 18).
Note:
In case of a dynamic address assignment via DHCP, the
new IP address must first be determined. Commercial routers
list all connected devices with their current IP address.
