A newbie question:
On the GIGA board, does CANRX & CANTX map to CANH & CANL respectively or vice versa? (The GIGA data sheet does warn the reader about nomenclature disparities between vendors)
The pair of transceivers in my possession have CANH and CANL markings only. I need elementary level guidance, please.
Thanks!
Just hook it up to the bus, if it does not work reverse the leads, if you get it working note what is what. Connecting the bus backwards will normally not hurt anything.

Hi there,
Great question! In general, CANRX (Receive) and CANTX (Transmit) signals are intended to work with CANH (High) and CANL (Low) lines. However, it's crucial to double-check with your GIGA board’s datasheet due to potential differences in terminology across manufacturers.
Since your transceivers are labeled with CANH and CANL, it suggests they are designed for the physical CAN bus lines. To avoid any mix-ups, refer to your GIGA board’s manual or datasheet to confirm the correct mapping. If there's any doubt, contacting the manufacturer directly might also clear things up.
Hope this clarifies things for you!
