Description

The plug and play 2xCAN/LIN logger records timestamped CAN data (Classical/CAN FD) to the extractable 8 GB industrial SD card (optionally 32 GB).

The small device connects via WiFi access points (e.g. WLAN or 3G/4G routers) to securely push data to your server. Further, global fleets can easily be managed via over-the-air firmware & config updates.

The CANedge2 is ideal for telematics & vehicle fleet management – as well as R&D field testing, diagnostics and predictive maintenance of machinery.

Software/APIs are free & open source – with no subscription fees or vendor lock-in.

Reinventing telematics

Today, fleet telematics is vital across vehicles and machines. However, end users face challenges: Expensive subscriptions. No data ownership. Security concerns. Lack of control.

The CANedge2 provides a modern alternative:

  • Simply add your WiFi access point & server details to start.
  • Log data to the SD – auto-upload when connected to WiFi.
  • Configure file split size/period to control upload frequency.
  • 100% secure: HTTPS, credential encryption and more.
  • Over-the-air updates (firmware & configuration).
  • 2nd port can power external modules (e.g. 4G hotspot, GPS).
  • Easily use with local, dedicated & cloud servers.
  • Supports multiple hotspots (e.g. optimize WLAN vs. cellular).
  • No fees. Open source software. Ideal for white label

Features:

  • Dual high speed CAN/LIN (incl. CAN FD) channels
  • Binary MDF4 log file format (extensive software support)
  • Lossless logging at full bus load – with 50 ?s RTC resolution
  • Advanced message filtering & transmit functionality
  • Start/stop logging triggers based on CAN ID & databytes
  • Silent mode, bit rate auto-detection, cyclic logging
  • Extractable 8 GB industrial SD card (= months of data)
  • Fast boot time. Safely disconnect during use

Specifications

CAN BUS:

  • Channels: 2 x CAN/CAN FD channels
  • Standard: ISO 11898: Compliant with CAN (up to 1 Mbit/s) and ISO & Bosch CAN FD (up to 5 Mbit/s)
  • Protocols: Log raw data from CAN based protocols (J1939, FMS, CANopen, NMEA 2000, OBD2, …)
  • Identifiers: Compliant with CAN specifications 2.0A (11-Bit ID) and 2.0B (29-Bit ID)
  • Bit-Rate Auto-Detect: Bit rate can be auto-detected or set manually
  • Retransmission: Configurable retransmission of frames that have lost arbitration or been disturbed by errors
  • Transceiver Protection: +/- 16 kV HBM ESD, ?15 kV IEC ESD, ?70 V bus fault, short circuit

LIN BUS:

  • Channels: 2 x LIN channels (Slaves)
  • Standard: Compliant with LIN 2.0 up to 20 Kbit/s (“enhanced” checksum format)
  • Transceiver Protection: +/- 8 kV HBM ESD, +/- 1.5 kV CDM, +/- 58 V bus fault

Data Logging:

  • SD Card: 8 GB extractable Class 10 industrial micro SD (SDHC) included – read at 80 MB/s
  • Parallel CAN/LIN: Record data from up to 2 x CAN channels + 2 x LIN channels, simultaneously
  • Real-Time Clock: Yes – CAN frames are date & timestamped with 50 microsecond resolution. The RTC can be configured to match local time zones (default: UTC)
  • Log File Format: Log data in industry standard binary MDF4 (easily convert to e.g. CSV, ASC, pandas, MATLAB, …)

  • Cyclic Logging: Optional cyclic logging mode (oldest log file is deleted when SD card is full)
  • Advanced Triggers: Control signal lets you start/stop logging based on custom CAN IDs & data thresholds
  • CAN Heartbeat: Optionally transmit heartbeat CAN frame with device status, storage used & RTC time
  • File Split: Configurable log file split size (by size: 1-512 MB and/or by time period: 0-86400s)
  • Power Safe: 100% power safe data logging – no file corruption when disconnected
  • Unique Device ID: Each device has a globally unique ID ensuring unique log file naming
  • Data Encryption: Log files can be encrypted at rest on the SD card for security/GDPR/CCPA purposes [pending FW]

WiFi:

  • Transfer Modes: Station mode: Connects to a WiFi access point (e.g. a router or 3G/4G hotspot) to transfer data
  • Protocol: HTTP/HTTPS: Stable, low overhead transfers – ideal for big data telematics
  • Access Points: Add 1-5 WiFi access points. Prioritized order. Condition on signal strength
  • Over-The-Air (OTA): Configuration & firmware over-the-air (COTA/FOTA). Configurable sync rate. Optionally disable
  • WiFi Heartbeat: If enabled, the CANedge2 periodically “checks-in” by uploading a small device status file
