No way to detect PCAN Router Pro

[gparks]

I have not been able to detect my PCAN Router pro in any setup. I have tried to detect it using PCAN-Flash and PPCAN-Editor, following the provided manuals. From my understanding to use PCAN-Flash I must connect the Router Pro Port 1 to my computer with a PCAN-USB (which I have done).

I have provided power and the device turns on and the microcontroller status LED blinks once every second, indicating it is working, and the power button stays illuminated. However, when I go to detect modules, I get a BUSOFF error and nothing is detected.

A similar situation happens in PPCAN-Editor. I have tried connecting it to an active can network, having multiple PCAN-USB linking it to the computer, etc, but no matter what I do as soon as I detect module my bus instantly goes to BUSOFF. Any help?

solved my own problem, the resistor inside the termination cable I was using was not properly soldered.

Hello gparks,

Thanks for sharing your experience with the CAN termination.
