10.3 DC/DC converter operation
The BDC546 is implemented in a CAN communication network and is usually controlled by a control unit. The CAN
commands required for operation are listed in the customer package in the CAN matrix. The CAN matrix is
available in the Firmware/CAN folders as BDC546_Gen.dbc.zip (dbc file) and BDC546_Gen.html (html file) It
includes the entire list with all CAN signals such as messages, errors and warnings.
The document BDC546-B Operating instructions describes the process for setting the main controller
(set value) and the limiting controllers (limits). Additionally, the priorities of the individual controllers
are provided.
As an alternative, the BDC546 can also be operated via a user-created CAN user interface on a computer. In this
case, the CAN control commands have to be generated by the respective software. As an example for this type of
user interface, the CVI software by BRUSA can be applied. It is presented in the following section.
If the device is not integrated into an existing CAN communication network, a customer-specific CAN
user interface can also be created by BRUSA, if required.
