CAN FD to IP network gateway in DIN rail housing
The PCAN-Ethernet Gateway FD DR provides access to both classic CAN buses and CAN FD buses via an IP network. Several units can also link CAN buses together over the IP protocol. CAN frames are encapsulated in TCP or UDP packets, then routed via the IP network to a remote device. This module features one LAN port and two CAN FD interfaces supporting bit rates of up to 10 Mbit/s. An AM5716 Sitara processor supplies the required computing power.
The PCAN-Gateway range is configured via an intuitive web interface. The JSON interface provides an alternative for software-based control. Both access methods provide information on device status, settings, communication interfaces, message routing and filters.
The CAN FD (Flexible Data rate) standard is mainly distinguished by an increased data transfer capacity. Each frame can carry up to 64 bytes of payload data (compared with 8 previously) at a bit rate of up to 10 Mbit/s. CAN FD maintains backward compatibility with the CAN 2.0 A/B standard, allowing CAN FD nodes to be integrated into an existing CAN network (the extended CAN FD features cannot, however, be used in this case).

With the PCAN-Gateways, CAN buses can be connected via LAN or WLAN. CAN frames are wrapped into TCP or UDP message packets and then forwarded from one device to another. Based on this technology, it is possible to connect CAN networks over a great distance.
The configuration of the PCAN-Gateway product family is done via a convenient web interface. For this, the device must be connected to the PC via LAN or WLAN, depending on the used model. The web interface can be opened with a common browser. After a successful login you get access to all information and the configuration of the device settings, communication interfaces, message forwarding, and filters.
Alternatively, the JSON interface is available for access. This allows the development of software to automatically monitor and configure all devices connected to the IP network.
Functions of the web interface

- Definition of the public visibility of status information
- Import and export of device configurations
- Reset of the device configuration to factory defaults
- Comfortable software updates
- Scan of the IP network for further available PCAN-Gateways for an easier establishment of routes
- Layout automatically adjusts for mobile devices
- Rebooting the device via the website
- Enabling, disabling, and configuration of the JSON interface
- Integrated help pages
