The i-7540D CAN-Ethernet Gateway
Quick Start User Guide
1. Introduction
This manual introduces the user to the methods used to
implement the i-7540D module into their applications in a quick and
easy way. This will only provide with the basic instructions. For more
detailed information, please refer to the i-7540D user manual located
on the ICPDAS CD-ROM or download it from the ICPDAS web site:
Fieldbus_CD:\CAN\Converter\i-7540D\
or
The goal of this manual is focused on helping users to quickly
familiarize themselves with the i-7540D module and the
CAN-Ethernet communication gateway. Here, we use two i-7540D
modules (called the i-7540D_A and the i-7540D_B) as the example
will demonstrate how to use the i-7540D modules. The architecture
of this example is depicted below.
When the i-7540D receives a valid message, with the ASCII
strings format from Ethernet port, it converts this message into a
CAN message and transmits it into the CAN network. Based on the
same reasoning, when a CAN message is received via the i-7540D,
the CAN message will be transferred to a message by using the
ASCII strings format through the Ethernet port.
