Status LEDs
4 Status LEDs
The tinCAN161 bus interface has three two-color status LEDs. Depending on the
operating mode of the tinCAN161, the LEDs behave as follows.
4.1 Bootloader
After plugging in the PCMCIA card, the bootloader of the tinCAN161 is active. In
this case the three LEDs flash green with a frequency of approx. 2 Hz.
4.2 Standard mode (with IXXAT VCI driver)
4.2.1 CAN1 / CAN2 LED
The LED CAN1 and CAN2 are lit green every time a message is received or trans-
mitted without errors. When the CAN error warning level is reached, the corre-
sponding LED is let red during reception or transmission. In the ’CAN BUS OFF’
state, communication is no longer possible and the LED is permanently lit red.
4.2.2 Low speed LED
The low speed LED is lit green when the low speed transceiver is activated on
CAN1. The LED switches to red when the low speed transceiver detects a bus er-
ror. Communication may still be possible if the automatic bus error management
can compensate for the bus error.
