1.2.2
Remote Diagnostics and Configuration of CAN Networks
Another possible application is the connection of a CAN network with
a computer. The user only requires a network connection over the
Ethernet in order to establish a connection with the remote CAN
network. No CAN hardware is required on the host computer.
A virtual CAN-Ethernet Gateway in the form of PC software (DLL) is
available for MS Windows systems. The interface of the virtual CAN-
Ethernet Gateway corresponds to a CAN driver.
Thus it is possible to use standard CAN programs, which use a CAN
driver (e.g. CANopen configuration tools like CANsetter
TM
and
ProCANopen
TM
or CAN analyzer tools like PCAN-Explorer
TM
or
PCANview
TM
).
The virtual CAN-Ethernet Gateway for PC extends the CAN network
over the Ethernet/Intranet/Internet into the office and offers new
possibilities for configuration and diagnosis of CAN networks in the
field level. The computer in the communication management level
requires an Ethernet connection to the field level, however it offers the
convenience of familiar CAN and CANopen tools.
The functions and parameters of the Gateway itself can be accessed
and modified remotely using the Telnet protocol.
