Send and recive a message between two PCAN-USB devices

[nduva]

Hello,

I have two PCAN-USB devices connected on the same PC via DB9 cable with 120-ohm adapters on both ends and
with the following setup:

Firmware: 8.6.1
Driver: 4.3.0
Number of channels: 1
Device ID: F0h

Firmware: 8.6.1
Driver: 4.3.0
Number of channels: 1
Device ID: FFh

I have some problems with the PCAN-view app; when I send a message from the first device can't see any messages received on second.
I'm using two different PACN-View sessions with default settings:

Mode: CAN (SJA 1000)
Clock Freq: 8MHz
Database entry: 500 Kbit/s

Is there any extra PCAN-View configuration I should know?

Thanks in advance.
Nicola

Hi,

please check your CAN cable again, that both CAN lines are connected correctly 1:1 and a 120 Ohms resistor is included on both ends between CAN-L and CAN-H. Do you see errors in the status bar of PCAN-View?

Hi Michael,

I checked the connection and the problem was due to a damaged adapter.
