CANboardXL Interface Family Manual

2.1 Introduction

CANboardXL for PCI, PCIe und PXI

The CANboardXL is available in three variants that have identical functionalities

 PCI card for installation in desktop PCs

 PCI express card for installation in desktop PCs

 Compact PCI/PXI backplane card for installation in industrial PCs

All cards contain a powerful 32 bit 64MHz microcontroller from ATMEL with ARM7

core and two SJA1000 CAN controllers from Philips. The SJA1000 handles CAN

messages with 11 bit as well as 29 bit identifiers. The reception and analysis of remote frames is possible without restrictions. The CANboardXL is able to detect and to generate error frames on the bus.

Configuration

The CANboardXL interface family can be configured with the Vector Hardware Config tool (Windows | Start | Settings | Control Panel | Vector Hardware).

Further details about the tool can be found in the separate installation instructions at the end of this manual.

Bus types

Various transceivers are available to interface the CANboardXL to a particular type of bus. These CAN and LIN transceivers are available as plug-in boards (Piggybacks) and can be mounted on the CANboardXL. For information on installing transceivers please refer to chapter Replacing Piggybacks on page 15. A list of available

Piggybacks is included in the accessories manual on the driver CD:

\Documentation\Accessories_for_Network_Interfaces.pdf

Connectors

The CANboardXL has the following connectors:

 Two D-SUB9 connectors for independent CAN and LIN operation

 Binder connector (type 712) for synchronization

 Internal sync connector (CANboardXL PCIe only)

Note: The pin assignments of the D-SUB9 connectors depend on the Piggybacks

being used. Further information can be found in the accessories manual on the driver CD.

2.2 Driver Installation

Note: Information about the driver installation process can be found in the separate

installation instructions at the end of this manual.

Manual CANboardXL Interface Family

2.3 Synchronization

General information

Time stamps, which are created during a measurement by two or more devices of the Vector interface family, can be synchronized by software or hardware.

2.3.1 Software Sync

Synchronization by software

The software synchronization is driver-based and available for all applications without

any restrictions. This kind of synchronization can be switched on in Vector Hardware Config | General information | Settings | Software time synchronization.

Figure 1: Switching on the software synchronization.

The accuracy of the time stamp correction depends on the device and is typically 50 µs.

2.3.2 Hardware Sync

Synchronization by hardware

A more precise synchronization of multiple devices is possible via the hardware synchronization. The hardware synchronization with a maximum of four devices is done with the SYNCcableXL (see accessories manual, article number 05018) and has to be supported by the application. The accuracy of the time stamp correction depends on the application and is typically 1 µs.

Functionality of the hardware synchronization

The devices to be synchronized must be interconnected by a two-wire bus (signals: SYNC and GND). The devices have a 3-pin connector for this use case (Binder type

712).

Assignment

1

Not connected

2

Synchronization line

3

Ground

At each high-low edge of the sync line the CANboardXL generates a time stamp that is provided to the application. This allows the application to synchronize the time stamps of different devices to a common time base.

CANboardXL Interface Family Manual

- 10 - Version 4.0 © Vector Informatik GmbH

The synchronization edges can be generated by the VN or the XL interface family.

Note: The hardware synchronization must be supported by the application. For

further information please refer to the relevant manual. Please note that the software

synchronization must be disabled (see Vector Hardware Config | General information | Settings | Software time synchronization) if the hardware

synchronization is used.

Synchronization by sync connector (CANboardXL PCIe)

Multiple CANboardXL PCIe can be synchronized either by the Binder connector outside the PC housing or by the internal sync connector. The internal sync connector is a 10-pin connector (90° offset) and available next to the Piggyback slots. The synchronization is done with a ribbon cable and a 10-pin standard socket.

Time synchronization through PXI backplane

Additional to the synchronization described above, the CANboardXL pxi supports time synchronization through the PXI backplane.

In Figure 3 (see Replacing Piggybacks on page 15) you can see the switches (white circle) that are used to control the synchronization between the cards.

In position ON, the synchronization is active. The right and left end of the

synchronization line, which is build with multiple CANboardXL pxi cards, has to be cut off. The cut off of the right end is done with switch 2, the cut off of the left end with switch 1.

3.1 General Notes

Caution: Turn off the main power supply and disconnect your computer’s power cord.

Otherwise systems using an ATX power supply unit with soft power off may still be powering the PCI slot. This can damage your PCI card when it is inserted into the slot

Caution: Do not force the CANboardXL into the slot. Make sure that the connectors

of the card’s PCI connector are aligned with the bus connector on the motherboard before you insert the card into the slot. If it does not fit properly, gently remove it and try again.

Note: Please observe all safety precautions prescribed by your PC manufacturer for

card installation!

Note: Do not touch the bottom and the topside of the PCBs (CANboardXL main

board and Piggybacks).

The devices can be run with several applications from Vector (e. g. CANoe, CANalyzer) or with measurement applications from other companies. Therefor the devices require a related license. Applications based on the Vector XL Driver Library can be run without a license.

2.2 Hints

Note: Many desktop PCs have power managers which block the CPU for a specific

time. This impairs accuracy of the time system. If your application has stringent timing requirements (e. g. time-driven sending of messages or time-driven evaluations), you have to deactivate these power managers. Power management settings may be con-

tained in the BIOS setup or on the Control Panel of Windows XP / Vista / Windows 7

(e. g. Power options).

No further mention will be made of the power manager in this document.

Info: Please note that you will need Administrator Rights for the following steps.

Manual Driver Installation

2.3 Vector Driver Setup

General information

The Vector Driver Disk offers a driver setup which allows the installation or the removal of Vector devices.

1. Execute the driver setup from the autostart menu or directly from \Drivers\Setup.exe before the device is inserted or connected to the PC with the included USB cable.

If you have already inserted or connected the device to the PC, the Windows found new Hardware wizard appears. Close this wizard and then execute the

driver setup.

2. Click [Next] in the driver setup dialog. The initialization process starts.

Either two High-Speed or two Low-Speed transceivers are necessary for this functional test:

1. Connect two CAN channels with a suitable cable. If two High-Speed transceivers are being used, we recommend our CANcable 1 (CANcable 0 for Low-Speed transceivers).

2. Start \Drivers\Common\Loop3.exe from the driver CD. This program accesses the Vector devices and transmits CAN messages.

3. Select the connected CAN channels of the device(s) to be tested.

4. Set the appropriate baudrate depending on the transceiver being used (HighSpeed max. 1,000,000 Bd, Low-Speed max. 125,000 Bd).

5. Click [Start].

VN2640 Start \Drivers\Common\M150Loop.exe from the driver CD.

2. Select the VN2610/VN2640 to be tested from the list of detected devices.

3. Click [Twinkle] and check if the power LED of the VN2610/VN2640 is blinking at

least for one second.

4. Connect the MOST fiber optic cable with the VN2610/VN2640 device, select
