1.5.3
The communication connector connects to the target device using a three-position,
screw clamp terminal block. The pin assignments, labeled on the top of the device, are:
• VBAT – Positive battery connection for voltage supplied by the vehicle
• LIN – Bidirectional data I/O
• GND – Common chassis, power and serial ground
1.5.4
The device uses a standard, 6.5 x 2.5 DC power plug. The center pin is positive. Power
can be supplied either through the power plug or the network connector as the two are
internally connected.
1.6.1
The LIN Serial Analyser PC program displays all of the board’s bus activity via the
software’s Transaction window, displayed on the connected PC. This is useful for
“sniffing” the bus and tracking message frames.
Chapter 3. “LIN Serial Analyser PC Program” explains the installation and operation
of the program.
1.6.2
The LIN Serial Analyser firmware is explained in Chapter 9. “PICkit™ Serial Analyzer
Firmware” of the “PICkit™ Serial Analyzer User’s Guide” (DS51647).
