● Do not operate the CAN-PCI/266 adjacent to heat sources and do not expose it to unnecessary thermal radiation. Ensure an ambient temperature as specified in the technical data. ● Do not use damaged or defective cables to connect the CAN-PCI/266 and follow the CAN wiring hints in chapter: "Correctly Wiring Electrically Isolated CAN Networks".

The CAN-PCI/266 is a passive PCI-bus board for 66 MHz PCI-bus systems with one or optional two CAN-interfaces. The CAN-PCI/266 works with a bus width of 32 bits. The module can also be used in 33 MHz PCI-bus systems at a bus speed of 33 MHz.

Hazardous Voltage - Risk of electric shock due to unintentional contact with uninsulated live parts with high voltages inside of the system into which the CAN-PCI/266 is to be integrated. Never carry out work while power supply voltage is switched on! ATTENTION Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.

Therefore the practical maximum number of nodes, bus length and stub length are typically much lower. esd has concentrated her recommendations concerning CAN wiring on the specifications of the ISO 11898-2. Thus this wiring hints forgoes to describe the special features of the derived standards CANopen, ARINC825, DeviceNet and NMEA2000.
6.2 Heavy Industrial Environment (Double Twisted Pair Cable) 6.2.1 General Rules NOTICE esd only grants the compliance with directive 2014/30/EU, if the CAN wiring is carried out with single shielded double twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2.
DSUB9 connector from ERNI (ERBIC CAN BUS MAX, order no.:154039). The usage of esd’s T-connector type C.1311.03 is not recommended for single shielded double twisted pair cables because the shield potential of the conductive DSUB housing is not looped through this T-connector type.
6.3.1 General Rules NOTICE esd only grants the compliance with directive 2014/30/EU, if the CAN wiring is carried out with single shielded double twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2. See previous chapter: 'Heavy Industrial Environment (Double Twisted Pair Cable)'.
9-pin DSUB-termination connectors with integrated termination resistor and male and ● female contacts (gender changer) are available from esd (order no. C.1303.01). DSUB termination connectors with male contacts (order no. C.1302.01) or female contacts ● (order no. C.1301.01) and additional functional earth contact are available, if CAN termination and grounding of CAN_GND is required.
5000 Table 5: Recommended cable lengths at typical bit rates (with esd-CAN interfaces) Optical couplers are delaying the CAN signals. esd modules typically reach a wire length of ● 37 m at 1 Mbit/s within a proper terminated CAN network without impedance disturbances like e.g.
Correctly Wiring Electrically Isolated CAN Networks 6.6 Examples for CAN Cables esd recommends the following two-wire and four-wire cable types for CAN network design. These cable types are used by esd for ready-made CAN cables, too. 6.6.1 Cable for light industrial Environment Applications (Two-Wire)
- there are no open circuits in CAN_H or CAN_L wiring - your bus system has two terminating resistors (one at each end) and that they are 120 Ω each. Page 22 of 26 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2036.21 / Rev. 1.5 CAN-PCI/266...
(see figure at previous page). 4. Measure the DC voltage between CAN_L and CAN_GND (see figure at previous page). Normally the voltage should be between 2.0 V and 3.0 V. CAN-PCI/266 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2036.21 / Rev. 1.5 Page 23 of 26...
