National Instruments PXI-8464/1 PXI-CAN Interface

The NI PXI-8464/1 (Part Number: 778783-01) is a selectable transceiver, Controller Area Network (CAN) Interface. The user can effortlessly include simple and computerized I/O with built-in signal molding to a CAN transport with the NI FP-1300. The FP-1300 is a CAN network interface module for NI FieldPoint. The CAN product can be expanded by giving a network to more than 50 I/O modules. The user can add as many as nine I/O modules per FP-1300 and can utilize various FP-1300s in a single CAN port. The FP-1300 is completely configurable, so the user can indicate the discretion ID (standard or extended) and characterize the configuration of the frame (number of bytes and displacement or specific I/O data inside the frame).

The National Instruments programming selectable CAN interfaces are accessible in the PXI format. The PXI-8464/1 is a 3U estimate module compatible with the PXI instrumentation detail and the CompactPCI mechanical PC benchmarks. The user can also utilize the NI PXI-8464/1 to communicate with singular low-speed CAN gadgets. It is imperative to decide the aggregate consummation of the current system, or termination of each individual gadget before associating it to a NI PXI-8464/1 port. Philips suggests an aggregate RTH and RTL termination of 100 to 500 Ω (each) for a low-speed network with adequate termination.

The termination resistors on a cable should match the nominal impedance of the cable. ISO 11898 requires a cable with an ostensible impedance of 120ω; accordingly, a 120ω resistor ought to be utilized at each termination of the cable. Every termination resistor should be approved for dissipating no less than 0.25 W of energy.

PXI-8464/1 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the interface will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
