CAN Bus Analysis Software Supports SAE J1939 and CANopen Data Monitoring and Recording
Posted by
onThe CANexplorer 4 by Sontheim is a modular, efficient, and intuitive field-bus analyzing software. It represents years of experience working with complex machine and vehicle CAN Bus networks.
The modular structure delivers all critical features for analyzing and logging CAN Bus network traffic, like classic text-based traces, graphs, bar graphs, LEDs, filters, and triggers. Furthermore, the software includes integrated protocol abstraction for CANopen and SAE J1939 to get pre-processed CAN Bus data. The integrated symbol editor defines symbols for abstracting CAN Bus frame values into human-readable values for proprietary protocols and RAW CAN Bus data.
The logged CAN Bus data can be replayed for simulation purposes. The test setups are configured using an intuitive drag-and-drop system, where only a few clicks are necessary to prepare new test setups. Simultaneous operation and other applications on a PC and a virtual device driver allow the testing of all functions without any connected hardware. In addition, the CANexplorer 4 provides multithread support for the SiECA132 MT-API with a maximum of 512 handles.
Key Features
- User-defined measurement setups with graphic elements and drag and drop
- Receiving, editing, sending and abstracting raw CAN Bus data
- SAE J1939 and CANopen protocol support
- Modular design with extension options
- Import and export of signal databases
eSAE J1939 Starter Kit And Network Simulator
Our JCOM.J1939 Starter Kit And Network Simulator is designed to allow the experienced engineer as well as the beginner to experiment with SAE J1939 data communication without the need of connecting to a real-world J1939 network, i.e. a diesel engine.
It may sound obvious, but in order to establish a network, you need at least two nodes, and that fact applies especially to CAN/J1939 where the CAN Bus controller will basically shut down after transmitting data without receiving a response.
For that reason, our JCOM.J1939 Starter Kit And Network Simulator consists of two J1939 nodes, namely our JCOM.J1939.USB, an SAE J1939 ECU Simulator Board With USB Port.
