National Instruments PCI-CAN/XS CAN Interface Device

The PCI-CAN/XS (Part number: 778782-01) is a CAN Interface Device from National Instruments. The NI PCI-CAN/XS implements built-in schemes to select parameters using software. This feature enables the user to select any of the transceivers from a list of the available transceivers. It incorporates high and low speed transceivers and a transceiver with a single wire. The NI PCI-CAN/XS also supports an exceptional transfer rate for data management. It has the maximum value of 1000 kb per second. This allows the device to manage 100 % of the bus load. The NI PCI-CAN/XS additionally has a 9-pin D-sub male connector.

The NI PCI-CAN/XS CAN Interface Device comes with a single port. The current rating of the device is 800 mA. The voltage rating of the device is +5 Volts DC. The internal circuitry is powered through the built-in DC-DC converter. It also incorporates the optical isolation feature against high voltages of up to 500 volts. It protects the device and its connecting components from damage during unwanted voltage spikes on the inputs of the instrument.

The NI PCI-CAN/XS offers the flexibility to monitor the bus traffic. There is a BUS monitor utility feature for this purpose. It also enables the user to log the traffic on a disk. The user can check or display traffic statistics of the bus. The NI PCI-CAN/XS works perfectly with different operating systems from MS. The user can choose any of the OS from Windows XP, 2000, NT, XP, ME, or 98. The NI PCI-CAN/XS also adheres to various safety standards of the industry.
