PCAN-Ethernet Gateway FD DR – User Manual

1 Introduction
The PCAN-Ethernet Gateway FD DR allows access to classic CAN or
modern CAN FD buses via an IP network. On top of that, CAN buses
can be connected to each other via IP using multiple devices. CAN
frames are wrapped in TCP or UDP message packets and then
forwarded via the IP network from one device to another. The
PCAN-Ethernet Gateway FD DR provides a LAN interface and two
CAN FD interfaces that allow bit rates up to 10 Mbit/s. For this, an
AM5716 Sitara processor provides the needed performance.
The PCAN Gateway product family is configured via a convenient
web interface. Alternatively, the JSON interface allows access via
software. Both options provide status information and settings of
the devices, the various communication interfaces, message
forwarding, and filters.
