Terminating resistor
A terminating resistor is integrated in the interface option above the ETH1 interface. A switch is used to enable
or disable the terminating resistor for the CAN bus interface. The L1 LED status indicator indicates whether the
terminating resistor is enabled or disabled.
Terminating resistor
On
The terminating resistor is enabled.
Off
The terminating resistor is disabled.

3.4.8.3.2 Shielding
For the interfaces on the 10-pin female connector, the interface shield can be put on pin 2 of the female connector.
A functional ground connection, which can also be used for the cable shields, is located on the interface plate of
the system unit.
3.4.8.3.3 LED status indicator - L1
The interface option has 1 integrated LED located above the terminating resistor.

3.4.8.3.4 Firmware
In order to guarantee the functionality of the interface option, at least the following firmware version (MTCX) must
be installed on the PC:
•
Automation PC 2100: V1.06
•
Panel PC 2100: V1.06
This firmware can be downloaded from the B&R website (
).
Information about firmware upgrades can be found in section
"Upgrading the firmware on the Panel PC 2100" on
3.4.8.3.5 Drivers
In Windows 7 and later, the CAN IF option is supported by PVI V4.2.5 or Windows CAN driver V3.0.
