Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 5(19) 3 Introduction Table 1: The Kvaser LAPcan/LAPcan II devices and their EAN numbers. Device Product Number Kvaser LAPcan 733-0130- 00029-2 Kvaser LAPcan II 733-0130- 00115-2 Kvaser LAPcan is a PC card compliant with the PC-Card (PCMCIA) standard. It contains the powerful microcontroller C161O from Infineon and two SJA1000 CAN controllers from Philips. The SJA1000 handles CAN messages with 11 bit as well as 29 bit identifiers.
Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 6(19) 4 Kvaser LAPcan installation The Kvaser LAPcan card may be inserted in any free PC Card (PCMCIA) slot that is capable of accommodating Type II or Type III cards. You don’t have to switch the power off before inserting or removing the card. 1 2 Figure 1. A Kvaser LAPcan with its two CAN ports. Many new laptop computers are equipped with CardBus slots instead of PCMCIA slots.

Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 8(19) 6 The DRVcans The DRVcans contain the CAN bus transceiver. There are several different types of DRVcans, and which one to choose depends on the physical layer your CAN system is using. Figure 2. A typical DRVcan. Kvaser AB, Mölndal, Sweden — www.kvaser.

Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 6.2 10(19) How to use the DRVcan • • Push firmly to insert the connector on the DRVcan into Kvaser LAPcan. To remove the connector, push both tabs (see Figure 3 below) as deep as possible and pull out the connector. • We recommend that you remove the card before inserting or removing DRVcans. This is because not all software will be able to handle a “hotswap”.
Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 11(19) 7 A Few Words of Caution • • • • Do not apply excessive force when inserting the card into the computer. Do not remove the card by pulling on the I/O cables. Always make sure the I/O connectors are firmly seated. When you remove a DRVcan, you must firmly press both the tabs (see Figure on the connector. 3 below) Figure 3. The I/O connector on a DRVcan. The tabs are marked with arrows. The D-SUB connector Figure 4. The DSUB connector on a DRVcan.
Kvaser LAPcan / LAPcan II Hardware Guide 12(19) Caution! Always connect the ground pin on the D-SUB to the ground of your CAN bus. Some laptop computers have AC power supplies that might destroy the DRVcan unless it is properly grounded. Running the laptop from battery power is usually OK even if the ground lines are not connected. Kvaser AB, Mölndal, Sweden — www.kvaser.
