Changing Node ID and Bit Rate

 

LSS commands: Disconnect all other devices from the CAN bus!

When sending LSS commands, all devices connected to the CAN bus are addressed. In order to change the bit rate or the node ID of the desired device only, no other devices may be connected to the PowerView3 via the CAN bus.

   

LSS commands: Use identical bit rates!

LSS commands can only be received from another device in the CAN bus if the LSS master (here: PowerView3) is set to the bit rate of the other device. If necessary, set the corresponding bit rate in the PowerView3 before sending the LSS command.

   

MOTORTECH devices preset to 250 kbit/s

For communication via the CAN bus, it is mandatory that all connected devices use the same bit rate. MOTORTECH devices are usually delivered with a bit rate set to 250 kbit/s. Use this bit rate in the TempScan20 as well.

 

You can change the node ID and bit rate of the TempScan20 in the PowerView3 in the view Communication Setup. This view can be accessed from the PowerView3 Start Menu via the Connection button. In order to change the node ID and the bit rate with enabled access control in the PowerView3, you need the rights for the access level Master.

Changing Node ID

Change the node ID of the TempScan20 as follows:

  1. Make sure that the current bit rate of the TempScan20 is set in the PowerView3. The factory setting for the bit rate in the TempScan20 is 250 kbit/s.
  2. Make sure that there is only the TempScan20 connected to the PowerView3 via the CAN bus.
  3. In the LSS Commands area, set the node ID that the TempScan20 is to be given.
  4. Tap Send Command.

Changing Bit Rate

Change the bit rate of the TempScan20 as follows:

  1. Make sure that the current bit rate of the TempScan20 is set in the PowerView3. The factory setting for the bit rate in the TempScan20 is 250 kbit/s.
  2. Make sure that there is only the TempScan20 connected to the PowerView3 via the CAN bus.
  3. Make sure that the current node ID of the TempScan20 is set in the LSS Commands area. Otherwise, the node ID is changed accordingly when the LSS command is sent. The factory setting for the node ID on the TempScan20 is 80.
  4. Select the bit rate that the TempScan20 is to be given.
  5. Tap Send Command.
