3.4.4.1 Module - Integrating Assistant

Purpose: Incorporates a new imc CANSAS-module into the module database. This can be done either by

accessing an actually existing module via the CAN-Interface (on-line) or by making an entry manually (off-

line).

Prerequisite: For on-line module integration, a supported hardware CAN-interface must be installed. The

interface is selected and its parameters set in the dialog for the menu item Extras/ Interface. If this hasn't

been done, the Integration Assistant will be closed after posting a corresponding message in explanation.

Also, the imc CANSAS-module must be correctly connected to the CAN-Bus and ready to run.

For the module integration procedure, only the module to integrate may be currently connected to the

bus involved. It's recommended to make a direct connection to the PC rather than going via the bus-

complex.

Procedure: Integration of a module is accomplished with the help of the Integration-Assistant's sequence

of dialogs. The softkeys Next and Back can be used to proceed to either the next step or the previous

one. In the dialog succeeding the introductory dialog, the decision is made whether the module to

integrate is accessed on-line:

Single integration: Integrates a new module on-line.

Choose this option to use this program to make the settings for a newly purchased imc CANSAS-module.

This is the preferable way to proceed as long as you have an actual module to integrate; the entry of the

module's parameters will be handled automatically and the database settings will be compatible with the

module.

Integration of multiple modules: It's possible to connect multiple modules, but they must all have the

same Baud rate and firmware. If this is not the case, proceed as follows:
