We specialize in solving challenging IoT problems in demanding environments. No matter your application requirements.
Learn how to set up, decode, and visualize CAN and CAN FD traffic using PCAN Explorer 6 in this hands-on webinar with PEAK-System engineer Uwe Wilhelm. Perfect for developers, testers, and engineers, the session covers symbol files, scripting, J1939 support, and powerful tools like the plotter and user panels.
Grid Connect, Inc. has introduced a new version of FireFly, a Bluetooth to RS232 serial adapter, as a replacement product for legacy versions with an obsolete Bluetooth module. Grid Connect’s FireFly serial adapter features the same form, fit and function as older versions.
Get clear, expert answers to real-world CAN bus troubleshooting questions—straight from the field. This Q&A covers voltage levels, bit timing, error states, protocol compatibility, and diagnostic tools for CAN 2.0 and CAN FD.
Learn how to diagnose and fix real-world CAN bus issues using practical tools and expert techniques. This free on-demand webinar covers everything from termination testing to decoding bit errors with live demos of CAN diagnostic tools.
Learn how engineers at leading OEMs reliably collect, decode, and analyze CAN (Controller Area Network) bus data using the CANedge series and open-source tools. This technical session covers everything from physical setup and connector selection to DBC decoding, Wi-Fi log offloading, and data visualization. Ideal for teams managing embedded systems, diagnostics, or validation workflows.
Grid Connect, Inc. and Real Time Automation® (RTA®) have partnered to bring original equipment makers a new embedded module that serves as a universal translator for enabling serial devices (RS-232, 422, 485, SPI, I2C) to communicate via protocols such as EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, PROFINET, BACnet/IP and others. OEMs also gain the capability to push data from plant-floor and field devices to analytical and business applications via OPC UA and MQTT.
Many factors can influence this decision, from the necessary bandwidth, to existing infrastructure, to security concerns. Letting the application determine the best protocol results in optimal for connectivity solutions, whether operating farming equipment, or shipping supplies, to conflict zones.
CAN bus diagnostics start with two questions: is the hardware healthy, and is the protocol behaving? This guide walks through every step — multimeter testing for termination, voltage, and transceiver faults; a breakdown of all five CAN error types; and protocol-level analysis using PC-based and handheld tools. Updated to cover CAN 2.0, CAN FD, and CAN XL.
A custom-designed product can break through a crowded marketplace, and open a business to a whole new sector of consumers. When you search for a path to achieve this, however, you’ll find many options, from standard, commercial off-the-shelf (aka, COTS) components, to custom parts, to highly-custom projects. When considering creating a custom IoT application, how do you make the decision between the multitude of options?
