Use as a Wireless CAN Interface
To use the Kvaser BlackBird v2 as a Wireless CAN interface, supply power through
the CAN connector and disconnect the USB connector.
When used as a Wireless CAN interface, the POWER LED will
be illuminated and the CAN LED will emit short flashes when
CAN messages are transmitted and received. When the WLAN
LED is constantly illuminated, the BlackBird is connected as a
CAN interface and the wireless communication is stable.

Troubleshooting
Use “Kvaser Hardware” in the Control Panel to verify that the computer can
communicate with the Kvaser BlackBird v2. If the firmware version shown is all
zeroes, there are communication problems.
If the LEDs are not flashing or illuminated at all, check the power supply.
For further troubleshooting, see the trouble shooting section in
the Kvaser BlackBird Getting Started Guide.
