6.1.1 CAN
Device test The operating test for CAN can be executed with the following devices:
¼ CANcardXL
¼ CANcardXLe
¼ CANcaseXL

Loop3.exe Either two High-Speed or two Low-Speed transceivers are necessary for this
functional test:
1. Connect both channels with a suitable cable. If two High-Speed transceivers are
being used, we recommend our
CANcable 1 and CANcable 0 for Low-Speed
transceivers.
2. Start the
Loop3.exe program from the driver directory on the Installation CD.
This program accesses the hardware and sends out CAN messages.
3. Select Channel 1 and Channel 2 (Selected channels) of the hardware to be
tested.
4. Set the appropriate baudrate (Settings) depending on the transceiver being used
(High-Speed max. 1,000,000 Bd, Low-Speed max. 125,000 Bd).
