How to reset

To reset IMC CANSAS, there are two main methods:

1. Manual Reset via Measure Dialog:
- Use the reset command from the channel menu in the Measure dialog to manually reset all selected incremental counter channels.

2. Reset via CAN-Bus Message:
- Enable resetting in the Special Functions node under the Resetting page.
- Use a CAN-Bus message with a specific identifier (e.g., 200).
- The respective channel to be reset is determined by the bit in the message’s data byte.

Additionally, a Reset-plug (DSUB-plug with Pins 3 and 4 jumpered) can be used to reset a module with unknown CAN-Bus settings to a defined baud rate for communication. This requires:
- Disconnecting the module's power.
- Inserting the Reset-plug into one CAN terminal.
- Connecting the other terminal to the PC’s CAN-adapter with a short cable.
- Ensuring no other CAN nodes are connected.

To maintain this condition and to ensure continued danger-free operation, the user should pay particular attention to the remarks and warnings made in this chapter.

  • Page 20: Transporting Imc Cansas

    1.4.1.3 Transporting imc CANSAS When transporting the imc CANSAS module, always use the original packaging or an appropriate packaging which protects the device against knocks and jolts. Above all, never let the module fall. If transport damage occurs, please be sure to contact the imc customer service.

  • Page 21: Guarantee

    Important information 1.4.1.6 Guarantee Each device is subjected to a 24-hour "burn-in" before leaving imc. This procedure is capable of recognizing almost all cases of early failure. This does not, however, guarantee that a component will not fail after longer operation. Therefore, all imc devices are guaranteed to function properly for one year.

  • Page 22: General Safety

    CANSAS 1.4.1.8 General Safety Certain basic rules of safety are always to be followed, even with 'safe' devices such as imc CANSAS. Unintended and/ or inappropriate usage of the device can be dangerous for the operator and/or surrounding persons and, in the worst case, can damage the test object or imc CANSAS itself. We strongly discourage the user from making any modifications to the measurement system whatsoever.

    2.4.4 Checking connections A dialog called from the menu item in the imc CANSAS interface's ‘EXTRAS’ menu lets you make settings for the CAN-Bus access and for interface parameters.

    2.5 Integrating the imc CANSAS software with imc DEVICES As of Version 1.4R5, the imc CANSAS software can operate not only as an independent program, but also integrated with the imc DEVICES software. This is supported by imc DEVICES as of Version 2.6.

  • Page 37: Can-Bus Description

    An identifier is a packet of data up to 8 Bytes in length. Each CAN-module is referred to as a node. A node can also be a sensor, control device, or a imc CANSAS- module's primary connection.

  • Page 38: Can-Bus-Wiring

    One 9-pin, male DSUB socket and one 9-pin, female DSUB socket or two 10-pin LEMO.1B.310 sockets at SL modules. This is the preferable alternative for connecting, and this is the only alternative imc CANSAS is designed for. In this case it doesn't matter whether other sensors are connected with the CAN-Bus with or without tee-junctions.

  • Page 39: Termination In Data Logger

    CAN-Bus description 2.6.4.1 Termination in data logger Current imc devices equipped with CAN-bus interface CAN2 can have a terminator resistor switched on internally via software. If the device is connected at one end of the CAN line, an external Y-cable with terminator is not needed.

  • Page 40: Reset-Plug

    Conversely, the net data rate depends on the package size and on whether the Standard Frame or the Extended Frame is used. For instance, if each imc CANSAS message has been optimally packed in 8byte chunks, the Standard Frame is used and there are no further subscribers connected to the node, the rate reaches 576,6 kBit/s, amounting to 36kSamples/s.

    In this way, the integer value from the SENT message is correctly interpreted as physical units. Note that on the Scaling page the designations X1, Y1, … are reversed from the order in the other imc CANSAS modules in conformity to the nomenclature in SAE J2716, according to which, X1 and X2 designate two physical values and Y1, Y2 represent the corresponding integer values from the SENT message.

    404 Properties of the Modules The following picture shows the scaling in the imc CANSAS GUI: 6.19.3 Format the CAN messages For each SENT input, there is a CAN message containing all FAST channels. 1..4 FAST-channels can be configured. The FAST channels are obtained from the SENT message’s 6 data nibbles. The CAN message is as large as all the extracted channels strung together.

  • Page 405: Timing Of The Can Message

    Example of demands on CAN capacities: 2 sensors are to be operated at a CANSAS-SENT module. Each delivers one SENT message every 3ms. Each sensor has a (14-bit) pressure channel and a (10-bit) temperature. Also, the Serial Protocol is to be evaluated.

  • Page 406: Overloading The Can-Bus

    CAN-IDs (and correspondingly lower priority) may not succeed in sending their messages. That also occurs in the PC which configures the CANSAS. For instance, if the Master and Slave IDs are set to 2032 and 2033, respectively, they have bottom priority. So the PC itself is no longer able to communicate with the module via the CAN-bus.

    The connectors at the Phoenix-terminal and those for the CAN-bus are not connected internally but are separated from each other by diodes. Therefore, make sure that the imc CANSAS module is supplied with power via only one of the two possible ways! Note when arranging the power supply that the starting current is greater than the long-term current.

Please make sure that no inputs used may be not connected, otherwise overshoot may occur at inputs, thus affecting other channels and resulting increased measurement error.
  • Page 545 8.3.1.5.2 imc Thermo-plug ACC/DSUB-T4 The patented imc thermo-plug comes with a terminal strip and a built-in temperature sensor (Pt1000) which provides cold junction compensation inside of the DSUB-15 connector. By this means, any thermocouple types can be connected at the differential inputs (+IN and -IN): The temperature sensor measures the contact's own temperature and compensates its parasitic thermal voltage.
  • Page 546 Note The thermoplug CAN/DSUB-T6 serves to connect six thermocouples to imc CANSAS-C12. When connecting the thermoplug to imc CANSAS, you must wait until the signal contact's (internal Pt100) low-pass-filtered temperature signal transient has subsided and the thermoplug's temperature has adjusted itself to that of the module. The time delay should be at least 5 seconds but may be greater if the temperature discrepancy is large (up to several minutes is possible).
  • Page 547 Note Four Pt100-thermocouples can be connected to the CAN/DSUB-Pt100 screw terminals in four-wire configuration. The necessary feed-current is provided by the imc CANSAS module. To close the current loop, any non-connected Pt100 units must be replaced with wire bridges: No Pt100 at Terminals 1+2 -> bridge Terminals 9+10.

    Note There is a possibility for certain function configurations to cause an electrostatic discharge (ESD) directly at the connection terminals. This can lead to asynchronous operation (crash) of the imc CANSAS-L-HVCI8. This will not cause any damage. A brief interruption of the power supply causes the module to restart (correctly).
