The Connection button in the Start Menu opens the Communication Setup view.
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 PowerView3 as well. |
The Communication Setup view provides the following options:
PowerView3
Changing Node ID
The factory setting for the node ID on your PowerView3 is 66. Change the node ID as follows:
The changed node ID will be discarded if you tap Reset before saving or leave the Communication Setup view without saving.
Changing Bit Rate
Change the bit rate of the PowerView3 as follows:
Other Devices
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. |
Changing Node ID
You can change the node ID of another device in the CAN bus as follows:
