Product Information

Product Description

This sensor-to-CAN module produces analog, digital & pulse measurements from 8 input channels and outputs the data via CAN bus. The module is 100% standalone, no PC required.

The compact device offers pro specs including. high accuracy and high-frequency sampling and configurable input ranges and digital thresholds.

The module integrates with any CAN bus to provide data for ECUs or CAN tools. For example, the module can be used as an add-on for the CANedge.

Easily add analog/digital/pulse data to any CAN bus system
Add analog/digital/pulse data via 8 input channels to your CAN bus - e.g. for use by ECUs or CAN hardware.

  • Powerful parallel sampling of analog/digital/pulse signals
  • Configure input range for optimal resolution/amplification
  • Configure digital high/low levels including optional hysteresis
  • Optionally output signals via CAN FD for fewer frames
  • Daisy-chain multiple modules for 16, 24, 32, or more channels
  • Dedicated excitation signal for powering input sensors (~3.3 V)
  • Power device at 5-26 V DC via standard DB9 adapter cables
  • Optionally record the data via any CAN interface/logger
  • DBC file included for easy decoding to human-readable form

Use Example:  Log/stream sensor data
The CANmod.input is often used as an 'add-on' for the CANedge. This setup lets you record data such as vehicle data via Channel 1 and analog/digital/pulse data via Channel 2. The data can be easily DBC decoded using such as asammdf GUI, Python or MATLAB.

You can also stream the sensor data in real-time via USB using SavvyCAN to view raw/decoded data (e.g. via plots).  Ideal for validating your setup pre-deployment or for lab testing.

The DB25 CANmod:input cable (shown in picture) is sold separately.
