Product description
The CAN GW provides isolation and filtering for up to three fielbus protocols including SAE J1939, CANOpen, DeviceNet or others. Two serial ports are available for downloading data to a PC, laptop or other user interfaces. The unit can be programmed from a CAN master in the field. Custom protocols can be programmed on request.
The CAN Hub can act as a:
- master CAN module to read measurement data from one bus and send commands to another bus;
- a protocol exchanger to allow connection of three CANbuses with different protocols (i.e. CANOpen, SAEJ1939, DeviceNet, other industry common fieldbuses or customer specific protocols);
- and as a safety relevant master to permit one communication line with data relayed to two buses with identical devices.
The CAN GW can offer maximum flexibility when building a CAN bus network control system. It allows the designer to build in a networked control system that interfaces to existing control modules. Messages from a network are received, filtered and re-transmitted to another networked control subsystems. Up to three separate network fieldbus protocols can be used for a vehicle control system with maximum efficiency of data transfer over the networks. A PC based configuration tool is used to set up the CAN ports and configure the messages. It is generic for all CAN fieldbuses.
Power supply for the module is nominal 24V (with a range of 9 - 35V). The module is protected against reverse polarity and overvoltage. The module is designed for harsh environments. The aluminum housing is sealed to IP65 (IP67 versions are available). The standard module has spring-loaded connectors inside the module case, which require no separate external connectors for the wiring. The module can also be supplied with customer-specific connectors and packaging.
Applications
Typical applications include for example:
- interface to SAE J1939 engine control modules and gear boxes to other CAN buses in the vehicle
- mobile applications, construction equipment, electric vehicles, work machines, agricultural equipment
- on-highway vehicles (trucks, buses)
- factory automation (robots, material handling machines)
