5.1.3. CAN@net NT Bridge Mode (Local CAN, CAN-Eth-CAN)

NOTE
In the CAN-Ethernet-CAN Bridge mode each device can be configured differently. But to build a
Bridge configuration all devices must be configured in one configuration file. The configuration has to
be set completely for all devices (Master, Slave 1 to 3) and then the complete configuration has to be
downloaded to each device. In the Local CAN Bridge mode only one device is connected and has to
be configured.
IMPORTANT
Exclusively one master device is allowed in the Bridge mode.
1. Make sure, that the Master device is connected and that the desired operational mode is selected (see
Connecting the Device in Use, p.
2. Configure the following for the Master and for each Slave in use:
a. In the configuration tree select General and enter the IP address of the device for CAN-Ethernet-CAN
bridges.
b. Define the general settings (see
c. In the configuration tree select CAN Ports and configure the baud rate settings for all ports in use (see
CAN Ports, p. 16).
d. Configure further settings if desired (see respective chapter MQTT, Syslog, Action Rules, etc.).
3. Configure the mapping table (see

4. After the configuration click button Write to
5. Click button Save or Save as
6. For the CAN-Ethernet-CAN Bridge connect the devices one after another and download the configuration to
each device.
7. Observe that for the configuration of a CAN-Ethernet-CAN Bridge each device must be configured with the
same configuration file. If the configuration is changed, the new configuration file has to be downloaded
again to all devices.

5.1.4. Downloading the Configuration with Linux

The basic configurations, like the selection of the operating mode, can only be created with the CAN-Gateway
Configurator with Windows. A configuration can be created and saved without a connected device and can then
be downloaded to connected CAN NT devices with Linux by using the Command Line Tool that is included in the
scope of delivery.
1. To be able to read and write configurations on CAN NT devices, copy the included file 60-bgi.rules to the
folder /etc/udev/rules.d/ (root access required).
