2.3 Terminator resistor settings

In order to minimize reflection effects on the CAN bus line, the CAN bus lines have to be terminated at both ends by two terminal resistances.

Based on the ISO 11898-2 spec, each terminal resistance is 120Ω (or between 108Ω~132Ω). The length related resistance should have 70 mΩ/m. Users should check the resistances of their CAN bus, before they install a new CAN network as figure 2-4.

Figure 2-4: Terminator resistor

Moreover, to minimize the voltage drop on long distance, the terminal resistance should be higher than the value defined in the ISO 11898 -2.

Table 2-4 may be used as a reference.

2.4 LED Indication

The I-7540D-MTCP provides the Converter function between the

Ethernet port and the RS-232 & RS485 & CAN port. It can handle both

11-bits and 29-bits ID format according to whether it is a CAN 2.0A or

2.0B. It also provides some LEDs to indicate to users what situation the I -

7540D-MTCP is in.

2.4.1 Power LED

There is a red indicator-LED in the I-7540D-MTCP as follow:

◊Firmware is running: flashing red

The default shipping of I-7540D-MTCP will be firmware inside, so the red indicator-LED of I-7540D-MTCP will be ON 0.5 second then OFF 0.5 second periodically.

2.4.2

CAN bus indicator LED

The I-7540D-MTCP includes three single-color LED displays to indicate the status of module, network and I/O device. They are ER LED

(it is red), TX LED (it is green), and RX LED (it is red). The Indicators assist maintenance personnel in quickly identifying a problem unit. The

LED test is to be performed at power –up. When the CAN communication events occur, these indicators will be triggered to glitter with different conditions.

 ER LED

This LED provides device status and indicates whether or not the device is operating properly. Table 2-6 shows the conditions of ER status. Therefore, when the device is operated normally, the ER-LED must be turned off. If this led flashing red, users can use the “99S” command, in section 4.5, to read the status of the I-7540D-MTCP.

5. Modbus Network (Only for Modbus TCP/ Modbus RTU mode)

The I-7540D-MTCP, Modbus TCP / Modbus RTU to CAN converter, supports the Modbus TCP/ Modbus RTU protocol. It acts as a Modbus

TCP server / Modbus RTU slave device on the Modbus network. There are some mechanisms for data-exchanging between the CAN register and the Modbus register as the figure at the following section.

In the Modbus Input Register, according to the different purposes these register are divided into three fields, “Normal CAN Message Field”,

“Specific CAN Message Field” and “Module Status Field”. When a CAN message received from the CAN network, the I-7540D-MTCP will check if the Specific CAN Message filed is used or not. If it is not used, this CAN message will be stored into the “Normal CAN Message” field. This field is similar with a kind of FIFO (first-in first-out buffer). Users can only read this field with the start address of this field by applying the Modbus command.

It only supports the FIFO read method.

After users read the

CAN messages from this field, the rest unread CAN messages will be moved to the buffer with the start address of this field.

This field can store maximum 200 CAN messages. Therefore, if the unread CAN messages exceed 200 records, the data will be lost.

If the “Specific CAN Message Field” is used, the CAN messages which are marked in the specific CAN message table of the Utility tool are directly moved to the Specific CAN Message Field. CAN messages with different CAN IDs will be stored in different parts of the Specific CAN

Message field. Users can set maximum 30 different CAN ID of CAN messages. Besides, a kind of CAN ID only has one record buffer. If there are two CAN messages with the same ID, the later will over-write the former. Therefore, the Specific CAN Message filed always keeps the newest information of the corresponding CAN messages with the specific

CAN IDs.

If a CAN message is sent to a CAN network from a Modbus network via the I-7540D-MTCP, the CAN message will be temporarily stored in

Output Register and not be transmitted until the CAN bus idle. The Output

Register is only one message buffer. Users can also use Modbus command to read the CAN message transmitted before. It is helpful for checking the last sent record.

5.2.1 Using Modbus TCP command to get a CAN Message

When the I-7540D-MTCP is set to the Modbus TCP mode, each CAN message (except the CAN message whose CAN IDs are defined in the

Specific CAN Message field) received from the CAN network will be stored into the “Normal CAN Message” field. Users can use the Modbus

TCP command (function code 04 hex

) to read the CAN message from the

“Normal CAN Message” field (refer to table 5-2). The start address of each command must be set to 0000 hex and the data length field must be 7 or 9 (with Timestamp) because one CAN message uses 7 or 9 address space. After reading the registers by the Modbus command, the content of the registers of the read CAN message is covered by the unread CAN message which will be read next.

Example:

Use Modbus TCP command (function code 04 hex

) to read one CAN message:

5.2.2 Using Modbus TCP command to Send a CAN Message

If users need to send CAN messages via the Modbus TCP commands, users need to send the Modbus TCP command with the “TX

CAN message“ format to the Output Register of the I-7540D-MTCP. Then the I-7540D-MTCP will transfer this command to a CAN message format and send it to the buffer of the CAN controller. The CAN controller will send the CAN message automatically which the CAN bus is idle.

Users can use Modbus TCP commands (function code 10 hex

) to transmit a CAN message by writing the Output Register of the I -7540D-

MTCP (the data format must follow the Figure 5-1). The start address of the Modbus TCP command is always 0000 hex

, and the Word count and

Byte count are always 07 hex and 0D hex respectively.

Example:

Use the Modbus TCP command (function code 10 hex

) to transmit a CAN message to the CAN network:

Users can use the Modbus TCP command with function code 03 hex to read the transmitted CAN message. The start address of the command is always 0000 hex

, and the data length field must be set to 0007 hex

.

5.2.3 Using Modbus TCP command to get a Specific CAN Message

The I-7540D-MTCP supports a “Specific CAN Message” field to get the expect ten specific CAN messages. When receiving a CAN message whose CAN ID is defined in the Specific CAN Message by the Utility tool, the I-7540D-MTCP will save this CAN message to the “Specific CAN

Message” field.

Users can use the Modbus TCP command (function code 04 hex

) to directly read the CAN message from this field. It is usually used to get the important CAN messages immediately. The start address of the command must be the same as the start address defined in the Specific CAN Message field, and the data length field must be 7 or 9 (with Timestamp).

Example:

Use the Modbus TCP command (function code 04

hex

) to read the specific

CAN message from the “Specific CAN Message” field:

5.3 Modbus RTU Address

5.3.1 Using Modbus RTU command to get a CAN Message

When the I-7540D-MTCP is set to the Modbus RTU mode, each CAN message (except the CAN message whose CAN IDs are defined in the

Specific CAN Message field) received from the CAN network will be stored into the “Normal CAN Message” field. Users can use the Modbus

RTU command (function code 04 hex

) to read the CAN message from the

“Normal CAN Message” field (refer to table 5-2.). The start address of each command must be set to 0000 hex and the data length field must be 7 because one CAN message uses 7 address space. After reading the registers by the Modbus command, the content of the registers of the read CAN message is covered by the unread CAN message which will be read next.

Example1:

Use Modbus RTU command (function code 04 hex

) to read one CAN message:
