CAN related functions
The IQAN-MC2 uses a CAN-bus (CAN = Controller Area Network) to communicate
with IQAN expansion modules and other systems. The CAN-bus is a robust
communication protocol that is widely used and well proven within the automotive
industry.
The unit has two (2) CAN buses, CAN-A and CAN-B. The buses may be configured
using IQAN software to be ICP (ICP = IQAN CAN Protocol), SAE J1939 or Generic
user defined CAN protocol (e.g. CANopen).
Communication
The communication interfaces are used for uploading/downloading applications or
diagnostics and typically are connected to a computer.
CAN
The IQAN-MC2 has 2 CAN buses. Either of the CAN buses may be used for
communication and diagnostics. A CAN communication card is required to be installed
in your PC to use this feature.
USB
The IQAN-MC2 has a USB1.1 (device only) connection in connector C1, for
maximum voltage on USB pins, see Appendix A.
Compatibility
A redesign of the IQAN-MC2 has been done due to the ’end of life’ of the old USB
driver IC. This has resulted in a new part number and description: 20077787 IQAN-
MC2-M14.
