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
