Hi, I am working with the MCB167-NET evaluation board that has the C167-CS microcontroller on it and I'm having trouble testing the CAN modules. I have created a project using DAVE and run the program in uVision2 and everything seems to run fine when I simulate CAN1 and CAN2 modules. Now I want to test it on the evaluation board. Is it possible to test both CAN modules using only one board? I connected the 2 CAN modules together with a DB9 serial cable. To test CAN I connect a probe to port 4.6 which I setup for transmission. The oscilloscope shows a signal coming out but I don't know how to interpret it. Then when I connect the probe to port 4.7 to check of anything is being received I get no signal. Help. Thanks in advance.
We never tested it this way, but in general it should work. Important on the C167CS is that you enable the CAN I/O pins. See: Datashts\Infineon\M167CS.PDF, 19.7 The CAN Application Interface, Port Control. Also you need to enable the 2nd CAN itself in START167.A66 with V_XPERCON.
