Installation
2 Installation
2.1 Software installation
A PC driver is required to operate the interface. This driver is an integral part of
the VCI (Virtual CAN Interface), which can be downloaded free of charge from
the Internet at http://www.ixxat.de.
For installation of the VCI driver under Windows, please refer to the VCI installa-
tion manual.
2.2 Hardware installation
Before inserting the iPC-I 320/PCI II in the PCI slot, you should install the software
driver (see previous section).
For all work on the PC and interface, you must be statically discharged. Work
must be carried out on an earthed, anti-static work mat.
Take the following steps in sequence:
(1) Switch the PC off and remove the mains plug.
(2) Open the PC according to the instructions of the PC manufacturer and find a
suitable slot.
The interface is designed according to the PC standard and can easily be in-
stalled the computer. Do not use force when plugging in.
(3) Make sure the interface sits tightly in the PC.
(4) If your interface is assembled with 2 isolated CAN-circuits, you must fix the
additional slot plate and plug in the header on the interface (see section
3.1.1).
(5) Close the PC; the hardware installation is now complete.

3.1 Settings on the interface
The diagram Fig. 3-1 shows the positions of the plugs and the dip-switches on
the interface.

3.1.1 CAN bus connection
One (common) or two high-speed bus transceivers according to ISO/IS 11898-2
may be present on the iPC-I 320/PCI II interface. The signals of the first bus trans-
ceiver connect with the 9-pin sub-D pin/bush X501/X502. If two isolated bus
transceivers are assembled, the signals for the CAN bus of the second bus trans-
ceiver connect with the header X601. As an option, the bus connection can be
galvanically isolated from the CAN bus.

Configuration
The shield of the CAN socket is connected via a 1 MΩresistor and a 10 nF capaci-
tor to the ground of the CAN connection. In the case of a non-galvanically iso-
lated device version, CAN ground and PC ground have to the same potential.
Maximum interference immunity is achieved when the shield of the CAN cable is
earthed.
The assignment of the Sub-D connectors is shown in Table 3-1.
