3.1 Operation
A configuration of the PCAN-Optoadapter is not needed. You can use it instantly.
For general supply the adapter uses a direct voltage of +5 V. This must be applied to
pin 1 of the CAN connector. The CAN interfaces of the PCAN series are able to provide
5 Volts on pin 1.
When the 5-Volt supply is active, the LED on the PCAN-Optoadapter is green.
Risk of short circuit! When you connect the PCAN-Optoadapter to or
remove it from a CAN interface, latter must be turned off (without
power supply). Otherwise the PCAN-Optoadapter or other electronic
components may be damaged.
