Verify Your Installation
1. Power on your computer and start Windows.
A New Hardware Found dialog box may appear. If the dialog box does not go
away on its own, choose the default option, Install the Software
automatically (Recommended), and let the operating system install the
driver files. (On Windows XP SP2 or later, choose No, not this time to avoid
connecting Windows Update, then choose the default option.)
2. Launch MAX and refresh (press <F5> or choose View
menu). Your CAN cards should be listed now under Devices and Interfaces.
To test all detected CAN cards, choose Tools
Cards.
3. Proceed to the Connect the Cables section.
Connect the Cables
After you have installed the CAN interface, connect your CAN cables to the
interface. Because exact cabling requirements vary for each application,
National Instruments does not provide cables, other than the PCMCIA-CAN
cable. Refer to Appendix B, Cabling Requirements, of the NI-DNET User Manual
for information about the cabling requirements of the CAN hardware.
