Module Parameters for the CAN Interface of the ES593-D

Enter any name for the hardware module.

Defines the port number assigned to the CAN interface.

You can configure up to 4 CAN interfaces, depending on the hardware selected.

The port number is used to distinguish the interfaces.

If more than one device is connected to the same CAN controller, it can happen that the different devices, having different projects associated, have different CAN settings. To avoid problems being caused by conflicting CAN settings, it is possible to define which of the connected CAN devices will be used as master device for the setting of the CAN controller.

Please note that only CAN devices of the types KWP2000, UDS, CCP, and XCP with projects being assigned can be selected as CAN master devices; devices of the types CAN-Monitoring and CAN-Output can not be selected as CAN master device.

By default, the first master capable device that is shown under the controller item in the hardware tree is selected. If this device gets removed, the next device under the CAN controller will automatically be selected.

You can select from all master capable devices that are listed under the CAN controller item in the hardware tree.

• <device name>

  You can select any master capable device as master device; the list box shows all devices that are configured for this CAN controller, i.e. all devices that are shown under the controller item in the hardware devices tree.

• User defined

  The settings of the CAN devices will not be synchronized to the same setting.

  WARNING
  If the settings for the individual devices are different, the configuration of the hardware might fail.

Makes sure that data can be recorded even before the Drive Recorder has been started up:

• Yes

  The ES593-D will buffer the communication from the CAN-BUS until the Drive Recorder is running for CAN Monitoring.

• No

  Pre-buffering is disabled for the ES593-D.

Makes sure that the ES593-D wakes up on the first message on the CAN bus:

• Yes

  The ES593-D will wake up if any communication is detected on the CAN bus.

• No

  The ES593-D will not be activated by communication on the CAN bus.

Defines the current transmission rate for the CAN bus.

Defines the bus participation of the CAN controllers for CAN (FD) monitoring and CAN (FD) trace. The setting of this parameter applies to all devices of the respective CAN controller.

• Active

  Use active mode to monitor signals impacting other bus communication. If you use protocols like XCP, use active mode.

  This is the default setting.

• Passive

  Use passive mode to monitor signals without impacting other bus communication.

  Note
  If you select passive mode, the controller will now no longer send out frames. The passive mode suppresses the CAN ACK on the bus. All protocols like XCP will fail because the CAN controller will not send out any frames in passive mode anymore. INCA will run into time out of the protocol.

Configures CAN controllers for CAN monitoring and CAN trace. The setting of this parameter applies to all devices of the respective CAN controller.

• Off

  The CAN controller does not receive the frames which are sent out by himself.

  This is the default setting.

• On

  The CAN controller can receive the frames which are sent out by himself.

  Note
  Activate the parameter only if monitoring or trace was configured to this CAN port.
