Installation This chapter covers the software setup for the LIN interface PLIN-USB under Windows and the connection of the LIN interface to the computer. Install the device drivers package before you connect the LIN interface. 2.1 Install Software and Driver 1.
2.3 Check Operational Readiness 1. Open the Windows Start menu. 2. Type Peak Settings and press |Enter|. The window PEAK Settings appears. 3. Select LIN Hardware. The connected CAN interface is displayed. 2.4 Connect LIN Bus The transceiver of the LIN interface requires a power supply between 6 and 28 V DC.
In Windows, the LIN interface is not listed under "Safely Remove Hardware". 3.3 Distinguishing several PLIN-USB You can operate several PLIN-USB interfaces on a single computer at the same time. For this purpose, the device ID can be determined in order to distinguish the LIN interfaces in a software environment.
