CHAPTER 6: CAN COMMUNICATIONS
NOTE: For additional CAN information, refer to the CAN Networks manual (MAN0799) on the

6.1 Overview
Some XLE/XLT models (XE1xx) provide a CAN networking port, which is implemented with a 5-
pin connector, labeled CAN 1.
The CAN1 port allows the XLE/XLT OCS to exchange global data with other OCS/RCS
controllers and to access remote Network I/O devices (SmartStix, Smart Blocks and Smart
Rail Modules).
The CAN1 port also supports pass-through communications for programming multiple OCS
controllers over the CsCAN network.
The CAN 1 port also allows the XLE/XLT to exchange global data with other OCS/RCS controllers
and to access remote Network I/O devices (SmartStix Modules).
6.2 Port Description
The XLE/XLT CAN 1 port implements the ISO 11898-2 physical layer and the CAN 2.0A data link
layer standards. Also, since the CAN 1 port is powered by an internal isolated power supply,
external CAN power is not required. The CAN1 port does not supply power to the network.
