How can i connect Mks monster 8 v2 by Can Bus? Direct to usb on PI or by UTOC? If direct, i will connect CAN_L and CAN_H to USB on PI or TX and RX to GPIO on PI? Thanks

The monster8 can be connected over CAN in only three ways I am aware of.

USB PA11/12 in can bridge mode (acting as the network bridge and a can node concurrently).

USB PA11/12 as a CAN device (with a UTOC acting as the network tranciever) using RX/TX signalling.

CAN PA8/9 as a CAN device acting as its own tranciever reciwving H/L signalling .

303 / 5,000 Translation results Can you have a detailed picture of the wiring in each situation? If I use PA11/PA12 USB bridging mode, how do I configure it? I would love to not use UTOC but connect directly to the PI. Which I don't really understand how to connect. Mind you because I'm a bit poor at this. Please help me.
