authorized to put devices, systems and electric circuits into operation according to the applicable national
standards of safety engineering.
Conformity
The EtherCAN/2 is an industrial product and meets the demands of the EU regulations and EMC standards
printed in the conformity declaration at the end of this manual.
Warning: In a residential, commercial or light industrial environment the EtherCAN/2 may cause radio
interferences in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
Data Safety
This device is equipped with an Ethernet or other interface which is suitable to establish a connection to data
networks. Depending on the software used on the device, these interfaces may allow attackers to
compromise normal function, get illegal access or cause damage.
esd does not take responsibility for any damage caused by the device if operated at any networks. It is the
responsibility of the device's user to take care that necessary safety precautions for the device's network
interface are in place.
Intended Use
The guarantee given by esd does not cover damages which result from improper use, usage not in
accordance with regulations or disregard of safety instructions and warnings.
● The operation of the EtherCAN/2 in hazardous areas, or areas exposed to potentially explosive materials
is not permitted.
● The operation of the EtherCAN/2 for medical purposes is prohibited.
Service Note
The EtherCAN/2 does not contain any parts that require maintenance by the user. The EtherCAN/2 does not
require any manual configuration of the hardware. Unauthorized intervention in the device voids warranty
claims.
Disposal
Devices which have become defective in the long run have to be disposed in an appropriate way or have to
be returned to the manufacturer for proper disposal. Please, make a contribution to environmental protection.

Overview
1 Overview
1.1 Description of the EtherCAN/2
Figure 1: Block circuit diagram
The EtherCAN/2 is an Ethernet-CAN-Gateway equipped with an ARM9 processor, which controls
the data transfer between CAN and Ethernet.
The Ethernet interface is suitable for 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s networks and can be connected via
an RJ45-socket.
The CAN interface can be connected via a 5-pin Combicon connector.
The interface is in accordance with ISO 11898-2, is electrically isolated and can be used for
transmission rates from 20 kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s.
The connectors for the Ethernet-, CAN- and serial interface and the status LEDs are located in the
front panel of the top hat rail module and are easily accessible.
The 4-pin Combicon connector for the power supply is located in the case top side, easily
accessible.

NOTICE
Read chapter “Starting Up” on page 10, before you start with the installation of the
hardware!
Please refer to page 53 for signal assignment of the connectors.

Starting Up
2 Starting Up
To start up the EtherCAN/2 follow the instructions below.
Step Action see
page
Read the safety instructions at the beginning of this document
carefully before you start with the hardware installation! 5
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage - Risk of electric shock.
All current circuits which are connected to the device have to be
sufficiently protected against hazardous voltage (SELV according to EN
60950-1) before you start with the installation.
1. Mount and wire the EtherCAN/2 module (power supply voltage, CAN,
Ethernet). 9
2. Please remember that the CAN bus has to be terminated at both
ends. esd offers T-connectors and terminators. Additionally, the
CAN-GND-signal has to be grounded at exactl one point in the
CAN network. For details please read chapter “Correct Wiring
Electrically Isolated CAN Networks”
A CAN device with a CAN interface which is not electrically isolated
corresponds to the grounding of the CAN-GND.
57
3. Switch on the 24 V-power supply voltage of the EtherCAN/2. -
4. Assignment of a valid IP address for EtherCAN/2.
11
4a) If the current IP address is known, proceed to step 6. with the
assignment of a fixed IP address and the further configuration.
4b) If the current IP address is not known, use esdcp to detect it and
to assign a fixed IP address. For that purpose at first the host-
driver software has to be installed as described under step 5.
5. Insert the CAN-driver CD in the appropriate drive of your PC.
Install the EtherCAN/2 host-driver software from the CAN-driver CD on
your PC, as described in the manual 'NTCAN-API Part 2 Installation
Guide' [1] for the EtherCAN/2 module.
The installation will be guided by an installation program (Install Shield
Wizard). The window of the installation program depends on the
Windows operating system installed on your PC.
-
6. Configure the EtherCAN/2 via web browser. 16
Note Please note that changes of the configuration generally will not be
effective until a reboot. 42
7. Install the host-driver software now as described under step 5., if not
already done.
Configure the host-driver on the Windows PC as described in the
manual 'NTCAN-API Part 2 Installation Guide' for the EtherCAN/2
module.
