Converter Figure 1: Block circuit diagram of CAN-PCI/400 The CAN-PCI/400 is a PC board designed for the PCI bus that features two (CAN-PCI/400-2) or optionally four (CAN-PCI/400-4) electrically isolated CAN High-Speed interfaces according to ISO 11898-2. CAN-PCI/400-4 comes with two additional CAN interfaces via a separate slot bracket.

Attach the board. If you are installing the CAN-PCI/400-4 module with 4 CAN interfaces you have to install the adapter board in the PCI slot next to the CAN-PCI/400 board. Connect the two boards with the included ribbon cable (see figure 3 on page 12) via the 10-pin post connectors on the bard and on the adapter.

CAN interface (CAN 1) has to be connected via the upper DSUB connector (X410). If you are installing a CAN-PCI/400-4 with four CAN interfaces, you have to connect the third CAN interface via the lower DSUB connector of the adapter board and the fourth CAN interface via the upper DSUB connector of the adapter board.
This module type uses two additional CAN transcievers. The physical layer of the additional CAN interfaces is placed on a separate adapter board. The adapter board has to be mounted close to the CAN-PCI/400. Furthermore, it has to be connected via the ribbon cable that is contained in the scope of delivery.

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.
6.2.1 General Rules NOTICE esd grants the EU Conformity of the product, if the CAN wiring is carried out with at least single shielded single twisted pair cables that match the requirements of ISO 11898-2. Single shielded double twisted pair cable wiring as described in chapter 6.3. ensures the EU Conformity as well.
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.
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.
5000 Table 6: 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.
Correct Wiring of 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. CAN-PCI/400 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2048.21 / Rev. 1.1 Page 25 of 29...
(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. Page 26 of 29 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2048.21 / Rev. 1.1 CAN-PCI/400...
