PCAN-Router FD – User Manual Introduction The PCAN-Router FD has two CAN channels that support the new CAN FD standard in addition to the conventional CAN 2.0 specifica- tion. The module behavior and the data exchange between the two channels are freely programmable. Thus, for example, a conversion of CAN to CAN FD and vice versa is possible and new CAN FD applications can be integrated into existing CAN 2.0 networks.

The two D-Sub connectors are used for the CAN FD channels CAN1 and CAN2. The CAN lines (CAN_H, CAN_L) are laid out correspon- ding to the CiA® 303-1 specification. The power supply of the PCAN-Router FD can be done via both D- Sub connectors. The supply connections U and U are connected internally in a non-reactive configuration.

ID is conceivable here. For a firmware upload via CAN the PCAN-Router FD is identified by a 4-bit ID which is determined by the solder jumpers (default setting: ID15, all solder fields open).
Sub Connector Only product model IPEH-002214 (D-Sub connectors) On the circuit board of the PCAN-Router FD, a 5-Volt supply can optionally be routed to each pin 1 of the D-Sub connectors CAN1 and CAN2. Thus, devices with low power consumption (e.g. bus converters) can be directly supplied via the CAN connector.
PCAN-Router FD – User Manual Two Additional Digital Inputs Instead of the preset serial RS-232 interface for the serial data transmission, two additional digital inputs (Din1, Din2) can be assigned to the corresponding pins or screw terminals . This is done by moving two 0-Ohm resistors (alternatively solder jumpers).
PCAN-Router FD – User Manual Termination of the CAN Busses If the PCAN-Router FD is connected to one end of a CAN bus and if there's no termination of the CAN bus yet, an internal termination with 120 between the lines CAN_H and CAN_L can be activated.
PCAN-Router FD – User Manual Startup Procedure The PCAN-Router FD is activated by applying the supply voltage to Connectors the respective connectors (see chapter 2 on page 7). The firmware in the flash memory is subsequently run. On delivery, the PCAN-Router FD is equipped with an example firmware which forwards CAN messages 1:1 between both CAN FD channels (CAN FD ISO, 500 kbit/s nominal, 4 Mbit/s data).
Start the setup program for GCC ARM Embedded (gcc-arm-none-eabi-*.exe) and follow its instructions. Make sure that you enable the option Add path to environment variable on the last page. Afterwards, start the setup program for PEAK-System Make Utilities (PEAK-MakeUtils*.exe) and follow its instructions.
Library The development of applications for the PCAN-Router FD is suppor- ted by the library libPCAN-Router_FD_*.a (* stands for version number), a binary file. You can access all resources of the PCAN- Router FD by means of this library.
PCAN-Router FD – User Manual 5.3.1 Compiling a Firmware Example Do the following to compile a firmware example under Windows: From the provided DVD, copy the subdirectory of the desired example from the Example directory to the local hard disk.
Router FD with proper termination (120 on each end of the CAN bus) Operating system Windows 10, 8.1, 7 (32-/64-bit) If you want to update several PCAN-Router FD connected to the same CAN bus, you must assign a unique ID to each router. See 4-Bit Coding section 3.1...

This measure later applies the “Boot” connection with a High level. Connect a CAN bus of the PCAN-Router FD with a CAN interface connected to the computer. Pay attention to the proper termination of the CAN cabling (2 x 120 ).
PCAN-Router FD – User Manual Sending the Firmware The process of uploading new firmware to the PCAN-Router FD is as follows: Ensure that a connection is established between the “Boot” and “U ”, “U ”, or “U ” connections of the PCAN-Router FD (details: see above).
