2.6.7. Life Cycle Settings
Displays a list of counters of the selected OABR switch. The lists can be updated via the Refresh
button. The counters are reset to zero each time the switch is restarted.
In the „
Life Cycle Settings
“ submenu, all configurations can be made to make the OABR Multi-
Media-Switch operate in a life-cycle-dependent environment, such as in a test-car.
ATTENTION
: As long as the OABR Multi-Media-Switch is connected to a host via the Config Port
via USB, the device will always remain active!
In the section „
CAN Speed Configuration
“ the baud rate (1) as well as specific bit timing
Parameter (2) of the CAN bus adjustable. Optionally, one of the 6 preconfigured or customized
settings can be selected. The configuration mask (2) is based on the „
Microchip CAN Bit Timing
Calculator
“ tool of the company „
Intrepid Control Systems, Inc.
“, which can be downloaded from

NOTE
: Special attention is paid to the CAN mode (3). This must be configured properly. In mode
„
Normal
“, the OABR Multi-Media-Switch is participating actively on low level with the CAN bus
data communication according to the CAN specification. This means, that CAN telegrams are
acknowledged with an acknowledge. In the „
Listen only
“ Mode, on the other hand, the OABR
Multi-Media-Switch acts as a spy, making the actual data communication transparent.
ATTENTION
: If the OABR Multi-Media-Switch is required to be operated together with another
CAN node, the mode „
Normal
“ must be selected!
