1. Introduction
1.1 Functional Overview
USBCAN-I Pro adapter is a debug or analysis tool with two CAN-Bus channel. Withthis adapter, PC can quickly connect to CAN-Bus network through USB interface, andbecome a intelligent node of CAN-Bus to transmit/receive CAN-Bus data.
Adapter comes with isolation, and can be used in different Windows systems. Devicedriver, software and programming interfaces(VC, VB, Net, Delphi, Labview,C++Builder) exist for different operating systems, so programs can easily access a
connected CAN bus.

2. Installation
This chapter describes how to connect the USB-CAN adapter to the computer and theprecautions when connecting the USB-CAN adapter to the computer for the first time.
2.1 Driver and software installation
Note: Before install the driver or software, please ensure that the user login windowsaccount is administrator, or the user account has to install the driver and softwarerelated permissions, otherwise it may lead to the installation failed.
2.1.1 Install driver and software
ECAN Tools has been integrated hardware driver installation program, users candirectly install ECAN Tools.If you only need to install the driver, please enter the “driver” folder, select the
installation file that corresponds to the system type. (“DriverSetup.exe” for 32-bit.“DriverSetup64.exe” for 64-bit)
2.1.2 Uninstall driver and software
Users can run the DriverSetup.exe/ DriverSetup64.exe and click “Uninstall” button touninstall the installed device driver.
2.2 Connect to PC
The adapter can be connected directly to a PC using a USB cable, if the USB powersupply is insufficient, you need to use external power supply.
2.2.1 USB power supply mode
USB power supply mode is suitable for the most applications, such as: whenUSBCAN-I Pro is the only device in USB port.
2.2.2 External power supply mode (only the USBCAN – II Pro support)
External power supply mode is suitable for the USB port using an USB HUB andhave already connect multiple USB device, this will lead to the adapter lack of electricity supply.
2.3 Connect to CAN-Bus
USBCAN-I Pro has one CAN-Bus by a 4 Pin plug type terminal leads, this CAN-Bus channels can connect to CAN-Bus network or devices. Terminal pin definition as Table 2.1 below.
Note: In practical use, most of the time just connected the CAN_H to CAN_Hand CAN_L connected to CAN_L then communication can be realized
