2x CAN bus on one RevConnect module?

Post by peterbeasley »

Can 2x CAN bus modules be supported simultaneously on a single RevPi Connect module?

Hi Peter,

unfortunately it is not possible to connect more than one CANbus module to the revPi connect.

Hi and thank you @nicolaiB for your fast response. There is another option you may put into consideration. You may use one GATEWAY Module for CANopen as well beside one RevPi Con CAN module. The difference between the two modules
for you is that the Slave Module is just available with CANopen and the data is available via the process image. The RevPi Con CAN accesses the CAN bus directly. Just have look at the two tutorials how to setup those modules:
