Basic Configuration
Preparation
1 Power Supply: Connect the PCAN-Gateway to a suitable power supply
(8 - 30 V DC). When the Status LED is blinking green, the device is ready and
the default configuration is executed.
2 Computer: Configure your PC with IP address settings that correspond to
the default settings of the PCAN-Gateway (IP: 192.168.1.xxx, Subnet mask:
255.255.255.0).
3a IP Connection for the PCAN-Ethernet Gateway (FD) DR: Use the supplied
RJ-45 network patch cord to connect the device to your LAN network.
3b IP Connection for the PCAN-Wireless Gateway (DR): Connect your PC to
the WLAN network that is provided by the PCAN-Gateway
(SSID: PEAK Wireless Default | Password: iCANaccess).
4 Configuration Website: Open the device’s address: 192.168.1.10 in a web
browser to access the configuration website. Enter admin for username and
password and confirm with Enter. Now you can start with the basic device
configuration.

CAN Configuration
Open the page Network >> CAN to configure the CAN channels. Please note that
the bit rate settings must match with the settings of the connected CAN bus.
Listen-Only-Mode: Enable this checkbox, if the gateway should act as an
observer, not affecting the data traffic.
Clock Frequency: Bit rates are calculated based on the selected clock
frequency. Depending on your gateway the frequency is
selectable or fixed to 24 MHz.
Nominal Bit Rate: Select a bit rate for transmitting CAN frames.
Additional Settings for CAN FD
If your gateway supports the modern standard CAN FD, additional settings are
available for each CAN channel.
CAN FD: Enable this checkbox to use CAN FD and to show the data
bit rate selection.
Data Bit Rate: Select a bit rate for transmitting the data of CAN frames.
Save your settings for each channel with the button Save Settings.

IP Configuration
Depending on your device the connection to the IP network is done via LAN or
WLAN. Open the page Network >> LAN or Network >> WLAN to configure the
IP interface.
Connection Settings: Only available on PCAN-Gateways with WLAN
interface! Enter the access data of the WLAN
network you will be connecting to.
Address Settings: Enter an IP address and Subnet mask that match
the settings of your IP network.
Please note: DHCP is not recommended.
After you have saved the settings, you are automatically logged out and the
basic configuration of the device is completed. For devices with WLAN interface:
After the basic configuration, the default WLAN network is no longer available.
Reset
You can reset a PCAN-Gateway if it is no longer accessible. Press with a paper
clip into the reset hole for longer than 8 seconds. Regular gateways are thereby
reset to the factory defaults (configuration and software). The PCAN-Ethernet
Gateway FD DR (IPEH-004012) instead activates a special restore partition.

Application Example
The PCAN-Gateways allow the connection of different CAN buses over IP
networks. CAN frames are wrapped in TCP or UDP message packets and then
forwarded via LAN or WLAN from one device to another.
CAN Bus A CAN Bus BIP NetworkGateway 1 Gateway 2
LAN
WLAN
In this application example, message traffic from CAN bus A is being forwarded
to CAN bus B via an IP network.
For this unidirectional data transmission two PCAN-Gateways and the creation
of a route on each device are required.

© 2021-03 PEAK-System Technik GmbH - www.peak-system.com
Gateway 1: Create a Send Route
Gateway 1 is connected to CAN bus A via its CAN channel 1. To transfer the CAN
messages to Gateway 2, you have to create a Send route on Gateway 1.
1 Add Route Open the configuration website of Gateway 1 and
go to the page Routing >> Manage Routes. Click the
button Add Route.
2 Configure Route Select Send: CAN > IP from the Choose the direction
drop-down list. Complete the form with the values
from the table below.
Status Active
CAN CAN Channel 1 (connected to CAN bus A)
IP Address 192.168.1.202 (address of Gateway 2)
Port 50000
Protocol TCP
3 Confirm Click the Add Route button at the bottom of the page
to complete the route creation process. After saving,
the route will be displayed in the overview on the page
Routing >> Manage Routes.

Gateway 2: Create a Receive Route
Gateway 2 has to receive the messages sent by Gateway 1. Furthermore,
the extracted CAN messages, have to be transferred to CAN bus B, which is
connected to CAN channel 2. To make that work, you have to create a Receive
route on Gateway 2.
1 Add Route Open the configuration website of Gateway 2 in
another browser tab and go to the page Routing >>
Manage Routes. Click the Add Route button.
2 Configure Route Select Receive: IP > CAN from the Choose the direction
drop-down list. Complete the form with the values
from the table below.
Status Active
Port 50000 (like the Send route)
Protocol TCP (like the Send route)
CAN CAN Channel 2 (connected to CAN bus B)
3 Confirm Click the Add Route button at the bottom of the page
to complete the route creation process. After saving,
the route will be displayed in the overview on the page
Routing >> Manage Routes.

Final Check
Open the page Routing >> Manage Routes on both devices.
If the Status LEDs of the Send route on Gateway 1 and the
Receive route on Gateway 2 are green, everything is fine and the
unidirectional message forwarding is working.
Please note: If you like to setup a bidirectional message
transmission, you have to create a message forwarding in the
opposite direction. For this a Send route on Gateway 2 and a
Receive route on Gateway 1 are required.
A detailed description of this application example is available in
the documentation of your PCAN-Gateway.
Video Tutorials
With short video tutorials on YouTube, we demonstrate how to
configure and use the PCAN-Gateways.
