2 About the DeviceCANview® Ethernet is designed for a fast data exchange between CAN and Ethernet networks. The device can be used in two different ways: Either as a transparent CAN bridge (using the Ethernet Network) or as CAN to Ethernet interface.

In case of using as a bridge two CANview® Ethernet can be used to transfer CAN data between two distant CAN networks. If the device is used as a single CAN to Ethernet interface, its major application is to transfer data to other Ethernet devices such as PCs for CAN data monitoring and analysis.

CANview® Ethernet can be completely powered by its integrated CAN connector. It is equipped with a high-performance 16-Bit microcontroller. The firmware can be updated using the integrated serial interface. This makes it possible to program the device to support proprietary CAN protocols or to run customer specific complex applications.

CANview® Ethernet can be delivered as an OEM device or in a rugged aluminum case for use in harsh environments. The device state is indicated by four LEDs.

The device is available in various options. It may optionally be equipped with a galvanically isolated CAN interface and/or different connectors. The device is also available in an IP65 version. The different ordering options are described in chapter 7 ‘Naming Conventions’ on page 11.

For further information, support and customer specific hardware and firmware adaptations see our web page:www.rmcan.com - Support or contact us via e-mail:mailto:[email protected]

3 DisposalObserve your national regulations when disposing the device and its package.

4 Important Information for Using CANview® Ethernet

This device is designed to be used in systems which must be checked for conformity with legal requirements prior to placing into operation. The integrator of this device is responsible to check and comply with regional directives and requirements.

Observe the information of the device manuals. Non-observance of the notes, operation that is not in accordance with the use as prescribed below, wrong installation or handling can result in serious harm concerning the safety of people and plant.

The operation manual has to be stored available at any time and has to be handed over to each user.

The device may only be installed, connected and commissioned by qualified personnel. Disconnect the device externally before doing any work on it. If necessary, also disconnect separately supplied output circuits.

In the case of malfunctions or uncertainties, please contact the manufacturer.

Tampering with the device can lead to considerable risks for the safety of people and plant. It is not permitted and leads to an exclusion of any liability and warranty claims.

This device requires an explicit permission of the manufacturer in order to be exported into the USA.

The type label and the housing must not be contacted (particularly cleaned) with any kind of solvent-containing substance.

OperationThe device must not be operated in machines and applications where life depends on the proper operation of this piece of equipment.

CANThe signals on the CAN connection terminals CAN-Low and CAN-High must match the signals on the CAN-terminals of the connected devices.GND of the CAN-connector has to be connected to CAN-GND.

The CAN interface can optionally be galvanically isolated against the rest of the device.In this case the shielding must be placed on the power side only as shielding of CAN ports will neutralize the galvanic isolation. Because of the galvanic isolation of the CAN interface, the CAN Ground and the power supply ground should not be short-circuited. Otherwise the galvanic isolation will be suspended.

To estimate the maximum length of the CAN bus-line for a given CAN baud rate, the following table can be used:

CAN Baud Rate Max. Bus Length1 Mbit/s 25 m800 kbit/s 50 m500 kbit/s 100 m250 kbit/s 250 m125 kbit/s 500 m50 kbit/s 1000 m

4.1 How to Open the Protection Cap

When opening the cap, please proceed according to the instructions below. Do not open it by force! Inappropriate handling can lead to damage and an exclusion of warranty claims.

1. Apply pressure to the back of the hinge.

2. You can then flip the cap open quite easily.

5 The ConnectorsThe drawing below this text shows an overview of the explained hardware components.

The device may only be installed, connected and commissioned by qualified personnel. Disconnect the device externally before doing any work on it. If necessary, also disconnect separately supplied output circuits.

5.1 CAN Connector

Apart from connecting CANview® Ethernet to the CAN bus, the CAN-connector can be used to supply the device with power. If used so the CANview® Ethernet has to be connected to the CAN-Bus in order to operate.The device can be equipped with a male 9-pole Sub-D connector or with a male 5-pole M12 connector. The different ordering options are described in chapter 7 ‘Naming Conventions’ on page 11.The Pin assignments of the CAN-connectors are according to the CiA DR303-1 and are shown in the tables and drawings below.

For devices with galvanically isolated CAN interface:Since the CAN interface is galvanically isolated, the CAN-Ground and the power supply ground should not be short-circuited. Otherwise the galvanic isolation will be suspended.
