CAN-RS232 Converting Controller CI250

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and operational guidelines for the CI250 CAN-RS232 converting controller, which interfaces with the CI 242xx stepper motor controller. It facilitates communication between RS232 and CAN bus systems, simplifying user interaction with CAN protocols.
Key Features:
  • Embedded DSP Microprocessor: Features a 16-bit high-performance digital signal processor with intuitive instructions and a user-friendly interface.
  • CAN2.0B Active Communication: Operates at 1 Mega bit/sec with high noise immunity, suitable for long-distance communication.
  • RS232 Communication: Supports a maximum baud rate of 115200 bps with automatic baud rate detection.
  • Wide Supply Voltage: Operates within a 6 to 40VDC range.
Specifications:
  • Absolute Maximum Ratings: Supply voltage up to 40VDC, storage temperature from -40℃ to +125℃, and working temperature from -20℃ to +85℃.
  • Electrical Characteristics: Supply power voltage ranges from 6V to 40VDC with a maximum current consumption of 100mA.
  • Communication: Utilizes RS232 with a DB9 female connector and CAN 2.0B with a 2-wire method, supporting up to 100 nodes.
  • Environment Requirements: Operates in environments free from dust, oil mist, and corrosive gases, with a temperature range of -20℃ to +85℃ and humidity below 80% RH.
  • Size and Weight: Dimensions are 66mm x 38mm x 19mm, weighing 0.1kg.
Application Guidelines:
  • Standalone Operation: For long-distance transfers, use 120Ω terminating resistors at both ends of the bus. The CI25001 converter includes a built-in resistor.
  • Network Operation: Multiple CI242xx controllers can form a local network. Maintain a direct point-to-point wiring scheme to avoid data errors caused by reflections. Avoid star configurations and minimize stub lengths.

Automatic Baud Rate Detection Wide supply voltage: Wide supply voltage range 6 ~ 40VDC Description The CI250 CAN-RS232 converting controller is used in conjunction with CI 242xx stepper motor controller to provide a RS232 interface on the user side and a CAN bus interface on the motor side (factory side). By using the CI 250 controller, users can be benefited from the advantages of CAN base control network without dealing with the complicated CAN protocol. User only needs to communicate with the CI 250 controller using the simple, intuitive and ASCII coded RS232 instructions. All CAN bus issues are taken care of by the CI 250 converting controller. Both the CI 250 controller and the UIM242xx controller support network. One CI 250 controller can command up to 100 CI 242xx controllers. Interfacing the CI 250 is simple, intuitive and fault tolerating. Users are not required to have stepper motor driving or CAN protocol knowledge. CAN-RS232 Converting Controller CI25001

CI25001 converter has a build-in terminating resistor. User only needs to attach a resistor at the other end of the bus. To enable the CI25001 converter’s terminating resistor, see the CI25001 manual. To achieve the best communication performance, CANH and CANL should use a twisted pair Network Operation : Multiple CI242xx controllers can be wired together to form a reliable...
