CANedge1: 2x CAN Bus Data Logger (SD + RTC)
The plug & play 2xCAN/LIN logger records timestamped CAN data (Classical/CAN FD) to the extractable 8 GB industrial SD card.

Description

 

The plug & play 2xCAN/LIN logger records timestamped CAN data (Classical/CAN FD) to the extractable 8 GB industrial SD card.

It's extremely easy-to-use: Simply power the device via your CAN bus connector to start logging raw CAN data. Extract the data and process it using 100% free open source software/API tools - incl. J1939/OBD2 DBC conversion & graphical plots.

The CANedge1 is ideal for monitoring CAN bus systems over long periods - e.g. for legal purposes, vehicle development, diagnostics, maintenance or research.


 

FEATURES

 

 

 

Pro specs CAN logger - at half the cost

The CANedge1 combines innovative design, cutting-edge components - and incredibly low costs:

 

l  Dual high speed CAN/LIN (incl. CAN FD) channels

l  Extractable 8-32 GB industrial SD card (= months of data)

l  Binary MDF4 log file format (extensive software support)

l  Advanced message filtering & transmit functionality

l  Start/stop logging triggers based on CAN ID & databytes

l  Silent mode, bit rate auto-detection, cyclic logging

l  Data compression & encryption (e.g. for GDPR, CCPA)

l  Support for CAN/LIN error frame logging

l  Fast boot time. Safely disconnect during use

 

 

Open source software/API – naturally

 

The CANedge1 uses open formats (MDF4 data, JSON config, S3 server) - and all software/APIs are 100% free and open source.

 

The software toolbox includes:

 

l  Editors: Easily modify your device config (online/offline)

l  Converters: Convert data to Vector ASC, PEAK TRC, CSV, ...

l  asammdf GUI: DBC convert, plot and export your data

l  Python API: Automate your data processing & integrations

l  Dashboards: Visualize data in custom browser dashboards
