Description
This adapter makes it possible to connect any laptop computer or PC with a USB connector to a CAN bus. Galvanic isolation of up to 500V between a host-PC and CAN signals is achieved with the help of an integrated DC/AC converter. The CAN is connected via a 9-pin SUB-D plug according to CiA standard recommendation DS 102-1. The LED integrated in the housing shows the operating state of the PCAN-USB.
The PCAN-USB package includes device drivers for Windows® 7/Vista/XP (32/64Bit), the PCAN-Light API, and the PCAN-View CAN monitor software. Linux drivers are also available.
Note: The x64 drivers work with the interface DLLs pcan_usb.dll from version 1.52 or higher. For applications that were build with the API of the canapi2.dll, interface DLLs from version 2.49.5 or higher are required. Files available in the technical documentation and demos section below.
