Battery¶
Some device types feature an integrated battery (lithium-polymer).
The integrated battery allows it to send logged CAN and position data via the cellular radio interface even if the power supply from the main plug connector is interrupted. The device is not designed for permanent battery operation.
On delivery, the integrated battery is charged by approx. 30%. Before you use the device, charge the battery fully. See Charging the Battery.
A fully charged battery can back up a power failure of approx. tbd hours (@ 20°C battery temperature), ensuring active operation of the device.
The following examples provide an overview of the battery runtimes in various application cases.
Example 1:
The rechargeable battery integrated is charged to 100% and the device is permanently switched on and online. The device transmits one file per minute. The battery runtime is approx. tbd hours.
Example 2:
The integrated battery is charged by 100% and the device is permanently in Sleep mode. The device switches on cyclically every 24 hours and is online for 5 minutes to transmit the current position and certain internal device parameters. Then the device automatically switches back to sleep mode. The battery runtime is approx. tbd days.
Example 3:
The integrated battery is charged by 100% and the device is permanently in Sleep mode. The device goes online only once, triggered by the acceleration sensor, and transmits the current position (theft monitoring without external power supply). The battery runtime (operational readiness) is tbd days.
The values stated in the examples can deviate depending on the use purpose and setup conditions (@ 20°C battery temperature).
Note
Note on the integrated battery:
- The integrated battery is charged using the power supply via terminal 30 and charging is only allowed in a limited battery temperature1 range of: 0 °C ... +45 °C / +32 °F ... +113 °F.
- Battery operation of the device is only allowed in a limited battery temperature1 range of: -20 °C ... +60 °C / -4 °F ... +140 °F.
1 Due to self-heating of the device, the battery temperature is approx. 15°C higher than the ambient temperature, depending on device TYPE and device usage.
Note
Note the following information about use of the integrated battery:
- The integrated battery has a limited service life. After 500 charging cycles, contact the Proemion service to replace the integrated battery, see Chapter Service and Support. The number of charging cycles can be read out via the BATTERY - CYCLE COUNT device variable. See Battery.
- Perform three complete charging and discharging cycles to achieve the full performance capability of the integrated battery.
- During battery operation, it is not possible to use the digital output.
Mobile Radio Interface¶
The device is equipped with a mobile radio interface for mobile data transmission.
All Models/Types support 2G, 3G and 4G.
To achieve greater network coverage, all types feature a fallback function to a 2G and 3G mobile network. The device detects the mobile network with the best transmission speed and automatically changes to the corresponding mobile network.
You can use the mobile interface to transmit data bidirectionally via the mobile network.
Input/Output Functions¶
The device is equipped with additional input/output functions (3 analog inputs, 1 digital output). You can use the input function, for instance, to log status information from devices or machines as well as to directly determine and monitor switch and key states.
For detailed information on the electrical behavior and limitations of the digital output, see Digital Output.
Acceleration Sensor¶
The acceleration sensor registers and evaluates accelerations in the directions of the X, Y, and Z axes, provides the measurements to the configuration logic and can send them via the CAN bus.

Note
Sensor is not calibrated.
Gyro Sensor¶
The 3-axis gyro sensor registers and evaluates the angle speeds in the X, Y, and Z axes, provides the measurements to the configuration logic and can send them via the CAN bus.

Note
Sensor is not calibrated.
GNSS - Global Navigation Satellite System¶
The device is equipped with a GNSS receiver. You can send the position data determined by the GNSS receiver via the CAN bus or the mobile radio network. The receiver can process signals from GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou satellites. It can process data from two navigation systems simultaneously. This increases the accuracy.
The GNSS-Signal is received via an external active antenna connected to an antenna connector.
GNSS Multicast¶
The CANlink® mobile 10000 is able to send NMEA frames as a multicast message via its Ethernet or Wi-Fi interface.
Digital Output¶
The digital output is implemented as a high-side switch and switches Terminal 30 (supply voltage). The load must be connected to GND.
The output is protected by the over-current protection of an integrated smart high-side power switch.
There is no fuse in the output line. The maximum allowed load current is 500 mA.
If additional protection (e.g. a fuse) is required, it must be implemented externally by the customer (e.g. in the wiring harness).
Further electrical specifications can be found in the Annex.
Configuration¶
In the Configuration Web User Interface via the Advanced Settings, you can configure following settings:

-
Enable the GNSS module, if not done yet.
-
Enable the GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo as needed.
-
The distribution of GNSS data via multicast is enabled by default.
-
Adapt the IP address for the multicast, if needed.
-
Adjust the sending of NMEA frames as a multicast message by entering the interval in seconds.
Receive GNSS Multicast Messages¶
To receive the NMEA GNSS strings via Ethernet/IP shared by the device, the socket must join the multicast group.
The strings are raw NMEA sentences that are terminated by \r\n.
The strings include the position data, i.e. latitude/longitude, the number of satellites, the level.
For testing purposes, you can use a tool that listens to the incoming strings, e.g. Packet Sender or implement a listener on your own, see Receiving multicast messages.
Note
Make sure to connect the GPS antenna to the device and place the antenna outside or close to a window.
Note
Make sure that the computer and the device are on the same LAN for testing.
Note
You might need to open the port (by default 31514).
For Windows operating systems, there might be more settings to configure for multicast, e.g. the receiving interface.

Reset Device¶
You may reset the device manually via the hardware button which is placed under the main plug connector, see Device Elements.
A manual reset of the device is used to disconnect it completely from any power supply, in order to reset to the standard configuration of the respective firmware variant. This might be useful, for example, when the access to the device got lost due to a misconfiguration of the Configuration Web User Interface during testing.
Note that remote resets or via the Configuration Web User Interface are not enabled.
Note
Make sure that the device was connected to a power supply for ~30 min before removing the main plug.
Note
Note that the device functions will be severely restricted due to device reset and, therefore, only trained personnel should carry out a device reset. Consider to back up your data before a device reset as all logged data is deleted from the device memory.
To reset the device, proceed as follows
Press the Reset button on the main plug connector, see following image, using a suitable tool (1 mm diameter) with the reset duration for the different modes described in the table below:

Switching to a new reset mode is indicated by the ON LED. The STATUS LED is partially illuminated and therefore imitates the ON LED in a slightly darker tone.
| Press Duration | Reset Mode | LED indicator |
|---|---|---|
| t < 5s | Power Reset (disconnect internal battery) | LEDs blink red in a 95/5 period. |
| 5s < t < 10s | Reset the Bridge (only for models with Wi-Fi module) or Ethernet network settings to factory configuration | LEDs start blinking in a 50/50 period. Once 10 seconds are reached the LEDs go off. |
| 30s < t < 40s | Reset to factory settings/configuration | LEDs start blinking in a 25/75 period. Once 40 seconds are reached the LEDs go off. |
| t > 45s | Start Recovery Mode Recovery mode is currently only relevant for Proemion. It allows the CANlink® mobile 10000 to receive a completely fresh firmware installation even if the device refuses to boot. A power reset (t < 5s) allows the CANlink® mobile 10000 to boot normally (and exit recovery mode). |
LEDs start blinking in a 5/95 period when holding the button for more than 45 seconds. Once 100 seconds are reached the LEDs go off. |
You can cancel the reset in the periods between resets. If the reset button is released during this time, the button press is ignored and the device remains in its starting state.
Recovery Mode¶
The CANlink® mobile 10000 includes an operating mode that supports recovering the device. Once the CANlink® mobile 10000 entered the Recovery Mode both LEDs are static red.
The Recovery Mode can be started manually by the user or automatically in the event that the system is no longer in a healthy/sane state.
While the Recovery Mode is active the device does not run the main application and most of the default functionalities are not operational. The device cannot go online and is not available remotely.
Entering Recovery Mode¶
There are two scenarios the CANlink® mobile 10000 switches into the Recovery Mode.
-
Initiated by the user by pressing and holding the reset button below the main plug for at least 45 seconds.
See: Reset Device
-
The CANlink® mobile 10000 repeatedly fails to start the main application.
-
With the latest firmware version the CANlink® mobile 10000 attempts to start the main application 10 times per boot partition before considering the boot impossible, see note below.
-
The CANlink® mobile 10000 judges a boot successful if all services are fully operational which can take up to 45 seconds.

Note
The CANlink® mobile 10000 has two boot partitions for fallback mechanims. With the latest firmware version the device performs 10 boot attempts per boot partition. Factory devices come with one prepared boot partition the second one is empty. In this case the device will only attempt to boot 10 times before switching into the Recovery Mode. Once the user has performed a new firmware update both boot partitions are in use and the device performs a total of 20 (2*10) boot attempts before switching into the Recovery Mode.
Firmware versions < 2.x.x
For firmware versions < 2.x.x CANlink® mobile 10000 only attempts to start the main application 3 times per boot partition before considering the boot impossible.
Exit the Recovery Mode¶
The Recovery Mode initiated manually via the reset button can be exited by performing a Power Reset via the reset button of the CANlink® mobile 10000.
Note
This requires the user to press the reset button below the main plug for not longer than 5 seconds. A simple power cycle of the CANlink® mobile 10000 is considered as not reliable. Especially on devices equipped with an internal battery.
If the Recovery Mode was entered because of too many failed boot attempts the system is classified as damaged and a manual recovery is required. The CANlink® mobile 10000 remains in this mode until its recovery.
Recover the CANlink® mobile 10000¶
Please contact Service and Support for further steps to recover your CANlink® mobile 10000 in case you are facing a broken system.

In the configuration web UI you can then change between the following configuration menus:

-
Advanced settings for the configuration of more complex settings.
Connectivity¶

The Connectivity menu provides
- The Network menu for managing the interface/connection profiles for Cellular, Ethernet, WiFi and Virtual Ethernet-WiFi bridging.
- The Proemion DataPortal menu for managing the connection to the DataPlatform.
Find also information on:
- Operation Mode
- Profiles: How to configure Cellular Network Profile, Virtual Ethernet-WiFi Bridging Network Profile, Ethernet Network Profile, WiFi Network Profile.
- How to use Ethernet Access Point, WiFi Access Point and Fallback strategies
Network¶
In the Network menu you can configure the network interfaces for Cellular (Modem), Ethernet, WiFi and Virtual Bridging Interface to connect the CANlink® mobile 10000 to the DataPlatform.
You can also establish other connections like local direct connections to the device e.g. through WiFi access point.

Important
Toggling an interface, en-/disables the connection not only to the DataPlatform, but also the access to the configuration web UI via this interface.
Security Features
The CANlink® mobile 10000 includes traffic control and network monitoring mechanisms as part of compliance with the Radio Equipment Directive (RED), Article 3.3 (EN 18031). These mechanisms help protect the device and connected networks from unauthorized access and different kind of attacks.
In the following sections, the relevant settings are described for adding new profiles. The settings are available for each interface with some dedicated options described in the sections below.
The configuration web UI allows modifying network profiles even if the related operating mode is not active at that moment.
Operation Mode¶
You can change the Operation Mode to switch between the physical interfaces and the virtual (bridging) interface.

Warning
The priority of the different Network profiles is as follows: Ethernet > WiFi > Cellular
-
Toggle the Virtual Ethernet-WiFi bridging option to activate the virtual (bridging) interface.
Note
When the virtual (bridging) interface is active, the WiFi and the Ethernet interface are always enabled, i.e. cannot be deactivated.
-
Or switch to Separated Ethernet and WiFi networks to separate the individual, physical Ethernet and WiFi interfaces and to work independently of each other (consider adapting the WiFi and Ethernet profiles separately). You may disable an interface.

Figure 6: Separated Ethernet and WiFi interfaces Warning
Before switching the mode, make sure to have the profiles configured, otherwise the device might not connect if not configured well, e.g. the profile is still on “auto”.
Profiles¶
Consider the following conditions for the different profiles:

-
Only one profile can be active at a time (even if several are enabled at the same time).
-
For each network interface, Cellular, Ethernet and WiFi, you have a default profile which you cannot delete but only edit.
-
You can add several new profiles with different settings.
To do so, click the plus icon:
Figure 8: New profile -
For each profile of the Cellular, Ethernet or WiFi network interface, you can define the Connection Priority: Enter an arbitrary, positive number - the higher value gives preference.
-
The Connection Priority prioritizes all interface profiles configured by the user for one specific interface.
-
Example: you set up 3 WiFi Interface Profiles for your Home Network, Company Network and Hotspot as fallback. You define the following Connection Priorities:
Home Network: 20
Company Network: 15
Hotspot: 10
If all profiles are set to "Automatically join this network when available" the CANlink mobile will first try to connect to "Home Network", if unsuccessful it will try to connect to "Company Network", if unsuccessful it will start the "Hotspot". This order is just for the WiFi interface. Cellular and Ethernet have their own independent orders of profiles. -
Example:

Figure 9: Connection Priority Example Note
For the Routing Metric, the lowest value will be used to route the traffic (e.g. Internet connection).
-
-
Cellular Network Profile¶
You can use the cellular network profile to establish a DataPlatform connection over the built-in cellular modem.
This can be used to:
- enable bi-directional remote communication with your machines.
- update certain components of the machines via cellular connection.
- use this Internet connection to authenticate to the DataPlatform to exchange relevant data.
- use the cellular modem to share Internet via WiFi and Ethernet, see WiFi Access Point and Ethernet Access Point.
Consider setting the cellular connection as the primary Internet connection, i.e. by changing the Operation Mode or the Lowest routing metric, see Advanced Settings.
The CANlink® mobile 10000 then connects to the provider via a cellular connection.
Add new Cellular Settings - Connection Profile¶

Note
Adjust the Cellular interface carefully considering the SIM traffic consumption.
- Profile name: Add a new profile name.
- Automatically join this network when available: Takes care that the CANlink® mobile 10000 will try to connect to a network using this interface profile automatically. It can be also understood as "activate this interface profile and connect to the network automatically".
- Connection priority: The higher the number (starting from
0), the more preference it gives to the network, see Profiles. - Deny data roaming: To deny the data roaming is not recommended for international deployments as it would block any usage of the device in countries foreign to the SIM card.
- Via the Advanced Settings, you can adapt the SIM settings to enable the PIN (default: disabled).
Virtual Ethernet-WiFi Bridging Network Profile¶
The Virtual (bridging) interface is used to access the Ethernet network via a WiFi Hotspot (the default WiFi name includes the last number of the MAC address).
Thereby, you can avoid connecting Ethernet cables for diagnostics as this option connects WiFi and Ethernet together.
The single IP address allows connecting Ethernet and WiFi on the same network and, thereby, communicating with the devices connected via Ethernet by establishing a WiFi connection to the CANlink® mobile 10000.
This option also works when the PC is connected via Ethernet!
Note
With this profile, the CANlink® mobile 10000 acts like DHCP server, thereby you cannot connect the CANlink® mobile 10000 to the router in order to access it.
Exemplary application for the virtual (bridging) interface could be as follows:
Laptop -> WiFi HotSpot (CLM10000) -> Ethernet LAN (CLM10000) -> various devices in the network.

In the Virtual Ethernet-WiFi bridging you can configure the network profile for the Bridging interface (note that you configure only 1 profile, not multiple as in the other network connections):
- SSID: is the name of the WiFi
-
IP configuration method:
- shared: CANlink® mobile 10000 acts as a DHCP server (a DHCP server assigns an IP range to devices (clients); the device gets an IP of this range and can communicate in the same network as the CANlink® mobile 10000
- manual: you manually assign the IP address ("static")
Note
Consider that when the CANlink® mobile 10000 and another device, e.g, PC, are connected via switch to a router, the CANlink® mobile 10000 should normally get assigned an IP address of the existing range, not assign one. This can cause a conflict.
-
IPV4 address: The CANlink® mobile 10000 by default offers the DHCP Server with the assigned IP address
192.168.82.1on the Ethernet and WiFi interfaces.
Note
The IP settings may be differently configured for the different profiles.
Therefore, make sure to properly configure the profiles, when switching interfaces (see Operation Mode); otherwise you may lose the connectivity to the configuration web UI.
Ethernet Network Profile¶
The Ethernet Network Profile can be used to go online without the cellular modem or make use of an already existing modem on the machine accessible via Ethernet for several use cases, e.g.:
- for data transfer
- access Internet via Ethernet connection when the mobile data connection is insufficient
- establish a DataPlatform connection over a Internet router connected via Ethernet
The CANlink® mobile 10000 is always delivered with a unique Ethernet MAC address (accessible via the type label) and can be identified in your LAN network via the Ethernet MAC address.
Thereby, the IP address assigned by the DHCP server can be found out in case the CANlink® mobile 10000 is configured to act as a DHCP client on the Ethernet network, see profile settings below.
Note
When the Bridging interface option is active, the Ethernet interface is automatically enabled, see [Operation Mode]. The individual Ethernet interface profiles become invalid.
Add new Ethernet Settings - Connection Profile¶

- Profile name
- Automatically join this network when available: Takes care that the CANlink® mobile 10000 will try to connect to a network using this interface profile automatically. It can be also understood as "activate this interface profile and connect to the network automatically".
- Connection priority: The higher the number (starting from
0), the more preference it gives to the network, see Profiles. -
IP configuration method:
- auto: CANlink® mobile 10000 acts as a client and gets IP from the router ( = DHCP client); is recommended to get a dynamic IP address (DHCP client) for the Ethernet interface. DHCP is required so that the CANlink® mobile 10000 can get an IP address from the DHCP server on the machine.
- manual: the configured IP will be used.
- Choose this option if no DHCP server is on the same network.
- If there is a gateway device, this IP address can also be configured.
- The DNS server settings are configurable as well (this is also the case for "auto" and "shared" methods).
- Might not work as router has a DHCP pool
- link-local: Link-local addressing (APIPA – Automatic Private IP Addressing) assigns an IPv4 address in the range
169.254.0.0/16when no DHCP server is available. This allows basic communication with devices in the same local network segment without requiring a DHCP server. - shared (default): With this method, the CANlink® mobile 10000 shares the Internet connection with the network via Ethernet and acts as a DHCP server by assigning an IP address to the connected participant.
- the IP address and netmask must be entered according to the CIDR notation.
Example: if you want to set the IP address of the CANlink® mobile 10000 to192.168.82.1and the netmask to255.255.255.0, then you must enter192.168.82.1/24into the IP address field.
The CANlink® mobile 10000 also acts as a DHCP server in this "shared" method. That means, if you configured192.168.82.1/24via the IP address, the CANlink® mobile 10000 will assign IP addresses from192.168.82.2to192.168.82.254.
- the IP address and netmask must be entered according to the CIDR notation.
Ethernet Access Point¶
You can share the Internet access from the cellular or external modem via Ethernet. Proceed as follows:
- The CANlink® mobile 10000 is set up to go online via WiFi, see [WiFi Network Profile] (usually, at the same time the built-in cellular module is set up, see Cellular Network Profile, in case the WiFi connection drops).
- Configure the Ethernet interface as the interface that forwards/shares the Internet connection:
- Set the IP configuration method of the Ethernet to
shared; thereby the CANlink® mobile 10000 also acts as the DHCP server on the Ethernet network. - Connect the CANlink® mobile 10000 to a Ethernet network to become the Internet router with a DHCP server.
- Set the IP configuration method of the Ethernet to
- The CANlink® mobile 10000 uses the IP address configured by the user and assigns IP addresses to connected devices.
Now, every device connected to the shared Ethernet interface of the CANlink® mobile 10000 can access the Internet. The third-party devices get the IP address assigned from the CANlink® mobile 10000 (CANlink® mobile 10000 acts as a DHCP Server).
Note
It would be also possible that the CANlink® mobile 10000 was set up to go online via the built-in cellular module, see Cellular Network Profile (step 1).
Then, you would have set WiFi Client connection as the backup in case the Cellular connection drops (i.e. set the WiFi's interface Operating mode to client to be able to connect to an Internet router with DHCP server).
WiFi Network Profile¶
The WiFi Network Profile can be used to go online without the cellular modem by using an existing WiFi infrastructure:
- to establish a DataPlatform connection over a Internet router connected via WiFi
- for data transfer
- access Internet via WiFi connection when the mobile data connection is insufficient
Note
When the Bridging interface option is active, the WiFi interface is automatically enabled, see Operation Mode. The individual WiFi interface profiles become invalid.
Add new WiFi Settings - Connection Profile:

- Profile name: Add a new profile name.
- Automatically join this network when available: Takes care that the CANlink® mobile 10000 will try to connect to a network using this interface profile automatically. It can be also understood as "activate this interface profile and connect to the network automatically".
- Connection priority: The higher the number (starting from
0), the more preference it gives to the network, see Profiles. - Operating mode: The CANlink® mobile 10000 can be used as a client or hotspot/AccessPoint; the hotspot mode allows clients to connect to the CANlink® mobile 10000 using the SSID and the password (e.g. WPA2/PSK). Consider also the IP configuration method Shared below.
- hotspot
- client
- SSID: Add the network's name.
- BSSID: not required; is the MAC address of the WiFi.
- Security: Choose the authentication method.
- IP configuration method: Choose the client communication type:
- auto: DHCP client.
- manual: Recommended in order to obtain a static IP.
-
shared: With this method, the CANlink® mobile 10000 shares the Internet connection with the network via WiFi and acts as a DHCP server by assigning an IP address to the connected participant.
- the IP address and netmask must be entered according to the CIDR notation.
Example: if you want to set the IP address of the CANlink® mobile 10000 to192.168.81.1and the netmask to255.255.255.0, then you must enter192.168.82.1/24into the IP address field.
The CANlink® mobile 10000 also acts as a DHCP server in this "shared" method. That means, if you configured192.168.82.1/24via the IP address, the CANlink® mobile 10000 will assign IP addresses from192.168.82.2to192.168.82.254.
Note
For the shared option, you can choose one or both interfaces, WiFi and Ethernet, to share the Internet connection. But, the interface used by the CANlink® mobile 10000 to go online cannot share Internet access at the same time.
If, for example, the CANlink® mobile 10000 goes online over a WiFi network, then the WiFi interface of the CANlink® mobile 10000 cannot be used to share the Internet connection. However, sharing via Ethernet would work here.
If the CANlink® mobile 10000 goes online via the cellular modem, sharing Internet via WiFi and Ethernet is possible. - the IP address and netmask must be entered according to the CIDR notation.
To connect to a WiFi access point with DHCP server as a DHCP client, configure the following settings:
- Set SSID of the access point the CANlink® mobile 10000 should use to go online.
- Choose for Security between WPA2 + WPA3 Personal or WPA3 Personal only (SAE) as the authentication method of the access point.
- Set the credentials based on the selected authentication method.
- Configure the CANlink® mobile 10000 to act as a DHCP client on the WiFi network.
- The CANlink® mobile 10000 can now establish a connection to the configured access point and successfully authenticates; gets its IP address assigned from the DHCP server running on the access point; uses the assigned IP address to access via the access point to the Internet.
WiFi Access Point¶
You can share the Internet access from the cellular or external modem via WiFi. Proceed as follows:
-
The CANlink® mobile 10000 is set up to go online via the Ethernet interface, see Ethernet Network Profile together with an external Internet router. You can configure to prefer the Ethernet connection and use the Cellular connection , see Cellular Network Profile as a backup.
Note
The CANlink® mobile 10000 can be configured to prefer the Ethernet connection and use the Cellular connection as a backup, see Cellular Network Profile.
- Configure the WiFi interface to act as a hotspot/access point, see above Operating mode.
- Configure the WiFi interface as the interface that forwards/shares the Internet connection by setting up the IP configuration method of the WiFi to "shared" (with "shared", the CANlink mobile also acts as the DHCP server on the WiFi network).
You can now find and connect to the WiFi interface of the CANlink® mobile 10000 via a third-party device (e.g. a laptop) and can access the Internet. The third-party device gets its IP address assigned from the CANlink® mobile 10000 (CANlink® mobile 10000 acts as a DHCP Server).
Fallback strategies¶
Fallback to WiFi to get Internet access¶
- Configure the CANlink® mobile 10000 to be able to access the Internet via Ethernet, WiFi and the internal cellular modem - Make sure all configured network connections are reachable.
- To define the order the interfaces are used to connect to the Internet, the Routing Metric is used which is configured for each interface profile in the Advanced Settings.
- The profile with an active connection and the lowest routing metric will be used to establish the Internet connection. In this example, the Ethernet profiles are configured to have the lowest Routing Metric and therefore the CANlink® mobile 10000 establishes the Internet connection via the Ethernet interface.
- When The Ethernet connection of the CANlink® mobile 10000 drops for some reason and the WiFi interface has the next higher Routing Metric the CANlink mobile routes the Internet traffic automatically to the WiFi interface.
- The CANlink® mobile 10000 uses the WiFi connection for Internet connection until the Ethernet interface is available for the Internet connection again.
Note
You may use the Connection Priority to define a prioritized order of the interface profiles for one interface (e.g. the Ethernet interface) to establish a connection.
In case one Ethernet profile is not valid to establish a connection to the network the next Ethernet profile will be used and so on. But there might not be Internet connectivity on the network or it might not be used.
Note
If the Ethernet connection drops and the WiFi interface has the next higher Routing Metric, the CANlink® mobile 10000 routes the Internet traffic automatically to the WiFi interface.
Fallback to the internal cellular modem to get Internet access¶
- Configure the CANlink® mobile 10000 to be able to access the Internet via Ethernet, WiFi and the internal cellular modem. - Make sure all configured network connections are reachable.
- The CANlink® mobile 10000 establishes an Internet connection via the Ethernet interface based on the lowest Routing Metric for the Ethernet interface profile.
- Set up the Cellular interface profile to have the next higher Routing Metric.
- When The Ethernet and WiFi connection of the CANlink® mobile 10000 drop for some reason, the CANlink® mobile 10000 automatically switches to use the internal cellular modem for the Internet connection - provided that the Cellular interface profile used to establish the connection has the next higher Routing Metric than for the Ethernet connection that just dropped.
Proemion DataPortal¶
The Proemion DataPortal menu provides data and configuration regarding the device and File Upload.
In the following, the relevant fields are described for the Proemion DataPortal menu.
Note
It is recommended to keep the default settings here as changing most probably makes the device not connecting anymore.
- Communication unit id: Contains the IMEI which is needed to [Activation of the Device, activate the device].
- Automatically upload incoming files to the portal.: Note that if automatic transfers to the DataPortal have been disabled, the space reserved for user files may eventually fill up, making further uploads impossible, and requiring you to re-enable this option.
Updates¶
Under Updates, you find the menus
- Firmware
- Configuration
Firmware¶

In the Firmware menu you can update the application firmware and view the history of the currently installed firmware.
You find the information about the installed firmware version and its status (online/offline) also in the bottom left corner of the sidebar.

- Open the Backup/Update > Firmware menu.
- Click in the field of the latest firmware to open the Upgrade firmware page.
- You can upload the firmware file of the format
.swu. - Click Install to upload the file and start the upgrade process. A message about the pending process will be displayed.

✓ When the firmware upgrade was successful, the configuration web UI will be reloaded and success message will be displayed. The installed firmware will be then listed in the Firmware menu.
Configuration¶

In the Configuration menu you can either update (import) the configuration or export the configuration settings.
All the configuration made via the Web UI are stored in a .clm file.
Note
The configuration file does not include the CODESYS application. A connection to this could be done via the Remote Machine Tunnel connection (connecting to the device as if it is on your network; device connected to the DataPortal via the mobile network).
Export Settings¶
To export the configuration settings, on the upper-right, click the export icon
.
This configuration file can then be uploaded to the DataPortal via Settings > Configuration Bundle > +Add new configuration: Upload CLM10K files
This way, you could use confiration-over-the-air (COTA) for applying the configuration file to the fleet.
Import Settings¶
You can upload a configuration file to apply it on one device.
To upload a configuration file, proceed as follows:
- Open the Backup/Updates* > Configuration** menu.
- Click in the field Import settings.
- You can upload the configuration file of the format
.clm. - Click Install to upload the file and start the upgrade process.
✓ When the configuration upgrade was successful, the success message will be shown and the installed configuration will be listed in the Configuration menu.
Location¶

In the Location menu you can generally enable/disable the Positioning service (GNSS).
If enabled, the GPS service will be enabled by default.
In addition, you can enable other location services, e.g. Galileo service.
Multicasting preferences allows you to share GNSS data/strings via Ethernet/IP. Click in the field to add the IP address of the multicast.
Date and Time¶

In the Date and Time settings, you can manually set the time together with the time zone or receive them automatically.
By default, the CANlink® mobile 10000 uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to automatically synchronize the system time via the Internet.
For this purpose, the device opens UDP port 123, which is required for communication with NTP servers.
Ensure that UDP port 123 is open in your network environment to allow proper time synchronization.
If needed, NTP-based time synchronization can be disabled under Advanced Settings > Date and Time.
The option to manually adjust the time is provided for use cases where the machine is located in an area where the time and time zone cannot be reliably retrieved automatically.
Note
The change of Date and Time settings is applied system-wide in the CANlink® mobile 10000. It might need an Internet connection for the changes to apply.
Power Management¶

In the Power Management menu, you can activate the option Enable sleep mode and configure its settings. For detailed information refer to the chapter Power management.
Security¶

In the Security settings, you can change the password for the admin, upload and api users.
File upload can be deactivated by disabling the Allow file upload to the device option. Once disabled, files can no longer be pushed to the CANlink® mobile 10000 via the device JSON API endpoint and consequently not to the DataPlatform either.
| User | Configuration Web User Interface Access | Device’s JSON API Access |
|---|---|---|
| admin | Yes. | Yes. |
| api | No. | Yes, limited scope. |
| upload | No. | Yes, only file upload endpoint. |
Advanced Settings¶
In the Advanced Settings, you may adapt the settings described above and configure more details, e.g. routing metric:
You can define the Routing metric used to make a routing decision. for each interface.

This option can be used to define/reorder the default routing, i.e. the preferred network the CANlink® mobile 10000 will choose for connecting to the DataPlatform.
The default value -1 means that the metric is chosen automatically.
Note
Make sure that other settings are adjusted accordingly in order to change the priority, e.g. en-/disabling the interface or the Autoconnect priority. etc.
Example of adjusting the routing metric:
- Enter an arbitrary, positive number for the routing metric of the interfaces. The lower value gives preference, e.g.:
- Ethernet routing metric: 100
- WiFi routing metric: 200
- Cellular routing metric: 300
- If you want the device to prefer the Cellular interface, change only the Cellular routing metric for instance to
10; the other interface remain as is, i.e Ethernet 100, WiFi 200.
Status¶

The Status page in the configuration web UI shows the device's status information about various interfaces and connections.
These can be used e.g. to check which of the configured connections are currently active and with which characteristics:
-
Firmware and Local Device: Check the current firmware version.
-
DataPlatform: Check which network interface is enabled to connect to the DataPlatform.
-
Mobile, Ethernet, Wi-Fi: Check the statically defined or dynamically assigned IP addresses of the active interfaces; check the signal strength of the cellular connection, etc. For more information, read Network.
-
Inputs: Check the analog inputs that measure the applied voltage.
API¶
For all URLs/paths of the endpoints except File Upload, it is required to use HTTPS transfer.
File Upload¶
Note
This section focuses on the file upload from the CANlink® mobile 10000 device to the DataPlatform.
For uploading files to the CANlink® mobile 10000, you can use the REST API endpoint, see {{ rest_api_transfer_to_machine }}.
The CANlink® mobile 10000 API allows to upload files from the machine to the DataPlatform, thus DataPortal via the upload endpoint.
This endpoint allows the upload of any file format including special file extensions. The files will only be stored and made available for download on the DataPlatform. There will be no processing of the files except for .clf file types, these are reserved for internal use.
In the DataPortal, the files are then to be found in Settings > Communication Unit management > File Transfers, see File Transfer.
Note
Consider that you need Machine:Admin permissions to view the Transfers menu on DataPortal.
Restrictions¶
The file size is limited for the file upload to 50 MB from the CANlink® mobile 10000 device to the DataPlatform.
-

After receiving a configuration file the device will try to apply provided settings. The operation is atomic, meaning that either all settings can be applied successfully or nothing will be applied at all in case one or more settings fail. A response code of 200/HTTP OK only means that the config file has been accepted for further processing, it does not indicate if settings were applied.
In the Configuration Web User Interface, the successfully updated configuration will be displayed as new entry in the Updates > Configuration menu.
Power Management¶
To protect the device from damage and data loss, a correct wiring and configuration of the power management settings is mandatory. The main purpose of the power management settings is that the device has a safe shutdown before the supply voltage (terminal 30/31) is disconnected.
The Power Management settings allow you to configure how the device enters sleep mode and which events can wake it up again. Proper configuration helps reduce power consumption while ensuring that the device remains responsive to required wake-up triggers, such as movement or scheduled intervals. The Power Management settings can be accessed through the device Web UI under Advanced settings > Power management settings.
Note
Wake-up of the device is possible when at least one of following condition is fulfilled:
- The IO - Clamp 15 (Ignition) State is at level
high(> 6 V) - The Enable accelerometer as a wake-up source option in the power management settings is enabled and the configured threshold is exceeded
- The Enable RTC interval as a wake-up source option in the power management settings is enabled and the configured time is elapsed

The following subsections provide an overview of the individual power management functions.
For further information see also chapter Switching the Device On/Off.
Enable Sleep Mode¶
Enabling Sleep mode allows the device to automatically reduce power consumption when no activity is required. When this option is activated, all configured sleep and wake-up mechanisms become active.
To enable Sleep Mode, proceed as follows:
- Enable Sleep mode.
- Configure the desired optional sleep triggers described below.
Enter Sleep Mode After Delay¶
The Enter sleep mode after delay parameter defines how long the device continues normal operation before entering sleep mode once Sleep Mode has been enabled.
You can configure this setting as follows:
- Enable Sleep mode.
- Enter the desired delay time (in seconds).
- Apply the configuration.
Note
Ensure that the delay is long enough to allow pending tasks to finish before the device goes into sleep mode.
Accelerometer Wake-Up Source¶
The internal accelerometer can be used as a wake-up trigger when the device is in sleep mode. When enabled, the device wakes up as soon as the detected acceleration exceeds the configured threshold.
To configure accelerometer wake-up, proceed as follows:
- Enable Accelerometer as a wake-up source.
- Set the Acceleration wake-up threshold (in g). The minimum delta value for the threshold is 0.2 g, resulting in an actual wake-up force of 1.2 g on the sensor. The maximum value for the acceleration wake-up threshold is 16 g.
- Apply the configuration.
Note
Choosing a threshold that is too low may cause frequent unintended wake-ups due to vibration or handling.
RTC Interval Wake-Up Source¶
The RTC wake-up interval function allows the device to periodically wake up at a defined interval using its internal real-time clock.
To configure RTC interval wake-up, proceed as follows:
- Enable RTC interval as a wake-up source.
- Enter the RTC wake-up interval in seconds.
- Apply the configuration.
Note
Choose the interval based on the required update or reporting frequency. Very short intervals may reduce power-saving benefits.
Temporary Disable Wake-Up Sources During Transportation¶
This option allows you to temporarily disable all wake-up sources during transport, storage, or shipment. When enabled, neither accelerometer wake-up nor RTC interval wake-up will cause the device to start unintentionally.
To enable transport protection, proceed as follows:
- Enable Temporary disable wake-up sources during transportation.
- Apply the configuration.
Note
Once the device is deployed and requires regular operation, ensure that this option is disabled again to restore normal wake-up behavior.
Timeout for Sending Wake-Up Reason¶
The Timeout for sending a wake-up reason to the server parameter defines how long the device should keep trying to upload this information before going back to sleep.
When the CANlink® mobile 10000 wakes up or boots, it automatically attempts to send its wake-up reason to the DataPlatform. In some situations, this upload may not be possible, for example due to missing network coverage or temporary connectivity issues.
To configure this setting, proceed as follows:
- Set the desired Timeout for sending a wake-up reason (in seconds).
- Apply the configuration.
If the wake-up reason cannot be transmitted within the configured timeout, the device will return to sleep mode and retry at the next wake-up event.
Note
A longer timeout increases the likelihood of a successful upload but may temporarily reduce power-saving efficiency, especially in areas with poor connectivity.
Safe Remote Update Guidelines
Safe Remote Updates Guideline¶
Introduction¶
Our firmware is subjected to an intensive testing process, including automated tests during development and dedicated testing for each final release candidate. This test suite is continuously expanded based on internal findings and field reports.
Despite these efforts, a residual risk of unexpected issues in specific scenarios remains.
To minimize this risk, we strongly recommend following the procedure outlined in this guideline when performing a remote firmware or configuration update campaign.
By adhering to these steps, you can significantly increase the safety and success rate of your update process.
Risk of Property Damage
It is strongly recommended not to remotely update all machines in a single step with a new configuration or firmware.
Remote Update Procedure¶
When planning a firmware or configuration roll-out, several steps should be considered to ensure the process is as safe and reliable as possible.
This guideline applies to each individual machine type or machine family. A machine family is defined by devices sharing the same configuration version, the same initial firmware, and — if applicable — the same SIM card settings.
Following these steps helps minimize the risk of update-related errors.
1. Initial Test on a Simulator or Sample Machine¶
Perform the first remote update on a simulator device whenever possible.
If a simulator is unavailable, use a single, easily accessible sample machine.
Verify that the update succeeds and that the device behaves as expected.
2. Update a Small Batch (Up to 10 Machines)¶
In the second step, extend the update to a maximum of 10 machines.
After completion, verify the success of the update on each machine individually.
3. Update a Partial Roll-out (Up to 15% of the Fleet)¶
If the second step is successful, proceed with a partial roll-out to a maximum of 15% of the fleet.
Conduct a success check after this roll-out as well.
4. Update the Remaining Fleet¶
Once all prior steps have been validated, roll out the update to the rest of the fleet.
Verifying Update Success¶
Between each roll-out step, perform sample checks to ensure that devices are operating as expected. Verification should include:
- Device startup and shutdown behavior in the machine environment
- Logged operational data
- File transfer to your ECU
- Execution of configured actions
- Any special or device-specific behaviors configured in your system
Key Changes in Firmware 3.1.0¶
This release introduces important security, configuration, and service changes.
CODESYS Runtime and EdgeGateway Service Configuration¶
To improve device security and minimize unnecessary service exposure, the following changes have been introduced:
Note
Existing CODESYS applications will not run until services are manually re-enabled.
- This is a persistent configuration; future firmware updates will not reset this setting.
- Use COTA with
.clmsettings files for efficient updates. Verify all Wi-Fi profiles to ensure settings are correctly applied.
Note
Test changes first on a single device; Hotspot password changes may be necessary.
The device description has been updated from version 4.9.0.0 to 4.17.0.0..
You need to download and install the CODESYS Add-on - CODESYS Control for Linux ARM SL version 4.17.0.0 and update your applications. Right-click on the Device (CODESYS Control for Linux ARM SL) and select Update Device from the menu:

Password Policy Update¶
To further enhance device security, passwords for accessing the device will follow a revised and more robust password policy:
- Length: 8–63 characters.
- Must include: one uppercase, one lowercase, one number, one special character.
- A maximum of 3 identical consecutive characters is allowed.
Note
Wi-Fi Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for client mode is not affected by this change to maintain compatibility with certain legacy devices.
Wi-Fi Security and Operating Mode Changes¶
To align with modern security standards and ensure reliable wireless communication, several outdated or less secure Wi-Fi modes have been removed from the available configuration options.
- Removed insecure or deprecated modes:
- Open (unencrypted) networks
- OWE (Opportunistic Wireless Encryption)
- WPA2 + WPA3 Enterprise (combined mode)
- Wi-Fi ad-hoc mode is removed.
- Existing configurations using these modes will remain functional temporarily, but the corresponding settings will be marked as deprecated.
- Firmware enforcement:
- Deprecated Wi-Fi security modes rejected from firmware versions ≥ 2.0.0
- Ad-hoc mode rejected from firmware versions ≥ 3.0.0
- Future support for WPA2 + WPA3 Enterprise may be reintroduced on request with a defined setup.
SSH Service Behavior¶
To enhance device security and reduce potential attack surfaces, the SSH service is no longer active in the factory default configuration.
- SSH is disabled by default on newly produced devices.
- Users can manually enable the SSH service on demand when remote access is required.
- Activation requires uploading a public key via the JSON API SSH endpoint.
This change ensures that SSH access is only available to authorized users and initiated through a secure key-based authentication process.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance¶
This chapter contains information on solving problems and on maintenance.
Cleaning¶
Risk of property damage
Damage to the device due to water penetration
-
The device was tested against water jets according to IPxK5 of ISO 20653 standard. Different loads, e.g., with a pressure washer or a higher flow rate, do not correspond to the intended use.
-
Never clean the CANlink mobile device with a pressure washer or similar.
To avoid damage caused by liquid ingress, no high-pressure cleaners may be used for cleaning. In order to remove contamination, you should also avoid using jet water if possible. Instead, use a damp cleaning cloth with a solvent-free and acid-free cleaning liquid. Make sure the device is mounted as recommended to avoid liquid ingress, see Mounting Orientation.
