About the DB25-DB25/DB9 adapter
The DB25-DB25/DB9 adapter cable makes it easy to reroute power from your CANmod/CANedge to your input sensors.
This enables you to easily power most analog/digital/pulse sensors as long as the required supply matches your CANmod/CANedge (e.g. 12V or 24V). Essentially, the adapter's DB25 (male) pinout is identical to the CANmod.input, but effectively 'replaces' the 3.3V excitation signal from the CANmod.input with the more powerful power supply that is used for powering your CANmod/CANedge.
The adapter can reroute the CANmod.input power supply ...
... or alternatively the power supply from a CANedge
Example installations
The cable will typically be used in two installation scenarios:
- Standalone: If your CANmod.input is directly connected to a vehicle/machine CAN bus, it will be typically be powered via 7-28 V DC. Here, the adapter cable can directly re-use the CANmod.input power supply as a supply for the sensors
- Add-on: If your CANmod.input is powered via a CANedge 2nd port 5V power supply (on pin 1), this cannot directly be used as the supply for the DB25-DB25/DB9 adapter. Instead, you can reroute the power supplied to the CANedge (7-32V DC)
In both scenarios you can use our DB9-DB9/DB9 adapter to split the power supply from the CANedge/CANmod and reroute this via the DB25-DB25/DB9 adapter to your input sensors.
You will often be powering the CANmod.input with a 5V power supply from the CANedge 2nd port. When you do this, the power is provided via pin 1 of the DB9 connectors, rather than pin 9. In the DB25-DB25/DB9 adapter we deliberately do not populate pin 1 and hence the cable cannot directly reroute the power supply from a CANedge 2nd port. However, if you provide 5V via pin 9 (for powering your CANmod.input for example), you can reroute this using the cable to power your sensors.
When you reroute the power supply from the CANmod/CANedge to your input sensors, you should verify that the input sensors can indeed be supplied with the same voltage level that you provide your CANmod/CANedge. I.e. if you are providing 24V to your CANmod, ensure that your input sensors can also cope with this power supply - and that they are designed with sufficient protection specs against e.g. transients.
