User Manual 3. Device Installation This chapter describes how to install a CANHub-AF2S2 device, including device installation and system wiring. Be sure to install it by referring to the instructions. Improper installation may cause equipment malfunction, resulting in damage to the equipment.
Power supply: TheCANHub-AF2S2 has a rated power of 5 W. But when the current is connected, the inrush current will reach about 5 times this current; Terminals: CANHub-AF2S2 has two power input terminals: two Pin AWG 14-22 plug-in terminals and DC JACK socket. The power cord can be connected to either terminal, but not both power terminals at the same time.
Figure 3.2 CANHub-AF2S2 power interface 3.2.2 Connecting to the PC from RS-232 The CANHub-AF2S2 is configured via the RS-232 interface. Figure 3.3 and Table 3.1 show the pins for the RS-232 interface on this device. Figure 3.3 RS-232 interface of CANHub-AF2S2 Table 3.1 Description of the RS-232 interface pins of CANHub-AF2S2...
User Manual 3.2.3 Connecting the Network CANHub-AF2S2 provides two twisted pair and two fiber CAN channels. Each channel is peer-to-peer and can be used to connect a CAN network or a device equipped with a CAN interface. The four channels are respectively routed by two 5-pin AWG 14-22 plug-in terminals and two optical fiber interfaces, as shown in Figure 3.4...

Figure 3. 7 CANHub-AF2S2 optical interface Because the optical fibers are connected point-to-point (several cables cannot be connected together like twisted pairs), each optical fiber interface of the CANHub-AF2S2 has two connectors, TX and RX, for connecting the optical fibers. The TX of the optical fiber interface can only be connected to the RX of another optical fiber interface through the optical fiber.
CANHub-AF2S2. 3.2.4 LED Indicators There are 10 LED indicators on the top panel of the CANHub-AF2S2. After the CAN bus is connected, when the system has no data transmission, the network active status indicator and the network error status Fault indicator should be off. When there is data transfer, all the network active status Active indicator flashes.
CANHub-AF2S2 to meet the actual application requirements. The device configuration includes CAN baud rate, message routing, message filtering, and adaptive baud rate timeout. Connect the CANHub-AF2S2 to a PC via an RS232 cable, and a dedicated configuration program running on the PC completes the settings without any hardware jumper or switch configuration.
User Manual Figure 4.2 Selecting CANHub-AF2S2 4.2 Basic Information The first tab of CANHub-AF2S2 configuration is basic information, including serial port connection and disconnection, basic information of the device, global settings of the device, and import and export of configuration files.

TSEG1 ≥ TSEG2 TSEG2 ≥ SJW Example: CANHub-AF2S2 system clock is 16 MHz. According to the standard baud rate recommended by CiA, the adoption point is about 85%. When the baud rate is 500 kbps, the 32-bit value of the baud rate should be 0x001C0001 (TSEG1=0x0C, TSEG2=0x01, SJW=0x00, SAM=0x00, BRP=0x01).
CAN channel of the bus baud rate successfully detected); if the bus baud rate is not detected successfully, CANHub-AF2S2 will set the baud rate of the channel based on the bus baud rate configured by the user in the previous step.
Figure 4.6 Routing function 4.5 Filtering CANHub-AF2S2 has a powerful message filter. The filter has 1,024 cells and can hold 1,024 standard identifiers or 512 extended identifiers or a mixture of both types. On the "Filter" tab page, the filter types are divided into four types: Standard Frame Identifier, Standard Frame Group Identifier, Extended Frame Identifier, and Extended Frame Group Identifier.
User Manual 5. Inspection and Maintenance The main electrical components in the CANHub-AF2S2 are all semiconductor components. Although they have a long service life, they may age rapidly under inappropriate conditions. Periodic inspections should be carried out to ensure that the required conditions are maintained.
