2.4 Piggybacks
Piggybacks
A piggyback is a plug-in PC-board which implements the interconnection of the logger
to a specific CAN bus by the use of various transceivers. The piggybacks are also
used in other loggers.
Available piggybacks for the
GL1000
series:

Note:
Transceivers with wake-up capability are supplied directly from the supply
voltage of the logger. During logger start, for the TJA1041 and TJA1054 transceivers
the supply voltage must not exceed 27 V in order to not damage the transceivers.
After start and during operation for these transceivers a supply voltage of maximum
30 V can be applied.
LIN transceiver
The LIN transceivers TJA1020/TJA1021 are already mounted on the main board of
the
GL1000
/
GL1010
. Therefore LIN piggybacks are not needed.
LIN level
The LIN transceivers are supplied from the supply voltage. On this way reference
voltage for the LIN levels and supply voltage have the same value. For example if the
logger is supplied with 24 V, the reference value for LIN is also 24 V.
GL1010: Piggybacks
Please note that the housing of the
GL1010
must not be opened under any
circumstances, since otherwise the IP65 protection class of the data logger is no
longer guaranteed. The piggybacks may only be replaced by Vector Informatik
GmbH. For more information, please contact the Vector Support.
GL1000:
Replacing
piggybacks
The CAN piggybacks can be exchanged for the
GL1000
. The installed piggybacks
are automatically detected (“plug & play”).
Notes:
>
First read the installation instruction completely.
>
The case has to be opened to exchange the piggybacks.
>
This must be done very cautiously and carefully.
Caution:
When performing this operation be sure not to touch the top or bottom of
the boards (logger main board or piggybacks).
