PCAN-Router Pro – User Manual
Do the following to set the time with PCAN-View and the ship-
ping configuration for the PCAN-Router Pro:
1. Under Windows start the program PCAN-View and establish
a connection to the CAN bus that is connected with the
PCAN-Router Pro, CAN channel 1.
2. On the Transmit panel insert the CAN message 7F8h with
8 data bytes for data, time, and the RTC update bit (see
example below). Note that these are hexadecimal values.
Since the message must only received once by the PCAN-
Router Pro, a cyclic transmission isn't set.
Example for Monday, 2010-04-19, 11:13:00:
Data bytes: year month day weekday hour minute second RTC update bit
3. Transmit this message once manually, e.g. by pressing the
space bar.
Date and time of the real-time clock in the PCAN-Router Pro
are now set to the information contained in the data bytes.
Tip: You can recall the current date and time with another CAN
message having the ID 7F9h and being transmitted as remote
request frame (data bytes: see table below).
