Reading CAN data with PCAN-USB

Post by kikitron » Sun 31. Jan 2016, 13:22

Hi to all,

I have one proportion hydraulic valve on the machine that has some problems. It has 4 pin connector (+, -, HI and Low) 12VDC.
I would like to know If I can connect my PCAN-USB parallel to this connector and read received and transmited signals from machine to the valve and vice versa with PCAN-view?

The PCAN-USB need only CAN-H and CAN-L. Please add the termination always at the both ends of the CAN Line and keep the connection from the main CAN-Line to the other nodes as short as possible (like the lines to the PCAN-USB). Then start PCAN-View and connect to the CAN Bus with the used Baudrate.
