Page 6: Introduction
1 Introduction 1 Introduction Thank you for purchasing the CANalarm ® . You have acquired a tool supporting you in the start-up, analysis, monitoring and servicing/maintenance of your CAN bus system. Thanks to its wide range of applications, its high data transfer rate and above all through its high tolerance against interference in the field of plant automation, the CAN bus has been well established for the last few years. -

For its correct operation, it is essential to set the appro- priate baud rate of the CAN bus segment. -
Page 11: Monitoring Of Malfunctions
The CANalarm ® offers the opportunity to analyze the CAN-IDs of all telegrams transmitted on the bus. If one ID has not been received within a defined time (Timeout), the CANalarm ® can activate a trigger and trans- mits the error to a superior control via its switching output. -
