+12 V= Figure 1: Block circuit diagram of CAN-PCIe/200 The CAN-PCIe/200 is a passive CAN interface board for PCI Express with one, or optionally two CAN interfaces. The ISO 11898-2 CAN interface allows a maximum data transfer rate of 1 Mbit/s. Among many other features of the CAN interfaces, the baud rate can be set by software.
Overview 1.2 PCB View with Connectors Figure 2: PCB view of CAN-PCIe/200-2 with 2 CAN interfaces On CAN-PCIe/200-1 (C.2042.02) the interface CAN Net 1 is not equipped. See also page 15 for signal assignment of the CAN connectors. NOTICE Read chapter “Hardware Installation” on page 10, before you start with the installation of...
Switch off your system and all connected peripheral devices (monitor, printer, etc.). Switch off the connected CAN devices. Discharge your body as described above. Disconnect the system from the mains. Make sure that no risk arises from the system into which the CAN-PCIe/200 shall be inserted. DANGER Hazardous Voltage Risk of electric shock due to unintentional contact with uninsulated live parts with high voltages.

Please note that the CAN bus has to be terminated at both ends! Additionally the CAN_GND signal has to be connected to earth at exactly one point. For easier wiring esd offers termination connectors with an earth connector (4.8 mm fast-on, male).
CAN interfaces are electrically isolated via optocouplers and DC/DC- isolation of the converters against each other and against the PCIe bus potentials CAN interface against other units Table 3: Data of the CAN interface Page 12 of 28 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2042.21 / Rev. 1.5 CAN-PCIe/200...

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.
CAN bus line via short cable stubs. This is normally realised by so called T- connectors. When using esd's CAN-T-Connector (order no.: C.1311.03) it should be noted that 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 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.
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-PCIe/200 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2042.21 / Rev. 1.5 Page 23 of 28...
(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 24 of 28 Hardware Manual • Doc. No.: C.2042.21 / Rev. 1.5 CAN-PCIe/200...
