1.1 Overview
The PCIe-9140I device is a 4-channel PCIe-CAN communication interface card in
compliance with PCI Express r1.0a specification. It supports PCI Expressx1 interface,
and allows a PC to easily connect to the CAN-bus network, implementing real-time
multiple bus network monitoring with easy usage and convenient installation.
The PCIe-9140I device provides four stand-alone isolated CAN channels in
compliance with CAN2.0B specification (compatible with CAN2.0A). It supports high
transmission speed of 1Mbps and can be used in applications more conveniently and
flexibly. In order to improve system performance, the PCIe-9140I communication card
also uses CAN transceiver module with 3500V DC electrical isolation, which protects
a PC from ground loop current and improves the system reliability in the severe
environment.
The PCIe-9140I device provides a unified application programming interface and
complete application example code, including VC, VB, Delphi and labview routines,
facilitating users to develop application code. It also supports OPC interface, allowing
it to be used in the configuration software that supports OPC. In addition, we provide
universal CANTest testing software through which CAN messages are transmitted,
received and monitored, facilitating users to develop and debug.

2.3 Terminal Resistor
As Figure 2-1 shows, there are built-in 120terminal resistors in the CAN channels of
PCIe-9140I. The interface card selects whether the corresponding terminal resistors of
CAN0, CAN1, CAN2 and CAN3 are connected to the bus network by connecting or
disconnecting JP1A, JP1B, JP1C and JP1D. Set whether the CAN channel
uses/enables 120terminal resistor, as shown in Figure 2-2. By default, the jumper is
connected in the factory, i.e. the terminal resistor of 120is connected to the bus
network.
The CAN channel of PCIe-9140I locates at a CAN network endpoint. Please connect
the corresponding jumper of channel, or connect a 120terminal resistor between
CAN_H and CAN_L of CAN channel. The PCIe-9140I series device uses the
CTM8251E transceiver. If different transceiver is used by other nodes on the network,
the value of terminal resistor should be calculated again.

2.4 Hardware Installation
The PCIe-9140I interface card is an electrostatic-sensitive product, and it is placed in a
special protective bag in the factory. Please take the necessary protective measures to
protect the interface card from the static damage caused by human body touch when
users use the interface card.
The PCIe-9140I interface card should be installed when the PC/IPC is powered off;
similarly, it should be removed when the PC/IPC is powered off.
The PCIe-9140I has no any switcher and jumper used to assign interrupts and I/O
addresses, which are assigned by BIOS automatically. So, the board card must be
installed into the PCI-E slot before install driver. The installation steps are as follows:
1.Switch off the PC and open the PC case.
2.Plug the PCIe-9140I interface card into the idle PCI-E slot (x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot).
3.Tighten the screws for mounting board card.
4.Switch on the PC and the BIOS inside PC will assign interrupts and I/O addresses to
PCIe-9140I interface card automatically.
5.Install driver.
