SAE J1939 Network Bridge With RS232/Wireless Connection
As part of another customer project, we have started work on an SAE J1939 network bridge device, which we call the jCOM.J1939.BRIDGE. The bridging serial hardware layer is RS232 in combination with a bit-stuffing protocol, similar to the protocol described at JCOM.J1939 PROTOCOL & PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (PDF). Our customer will use the RS232 serial port for extension of [...]
Vehicle Gateway Controller Supports 3G/4G/LTE Cellular Connection And CAN Bus Port
Lanner Electronics has launched their fanless V3 Series vehicle gateway controllers, the V3G and V3S. While the V3G is targeted for smart bus implementation, including fleet management and passenger information display, V3S aims at video surveillance, recording and analytics. The V3 series gateways can operate under an extended temperature range of -40~70°C.Both, the V3G and V3S feature [...]
Two-Channel CAN Bus To USB Gateway With Windows Data Monitor And C++, Delphi, LabView Software
The USBCAN-II Pro CAN Bus interface module by GCAN is equipped with SJA1000 CAN controllers and PCA82C251 transceivers. The two CAN Bus ports are galvanically isolated (1500 V), and the adapter is compliant with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. It can be used as a debug or analysis tool with two CAN channels. The gateway also supports automatic CAN [...]
1-port CAN-J1939 to Modbus, PROFINET, And EtherNet/IP Gateway
The MGate 5118 device by Moxa converts SAE J1939 messages (PGN = Parameter Group Number) to several other protocols such as Modbus-TCP, Profinet, and EthernetIP. A conversion to Modbus-RTU is also possible.A diesel engine might have a great number of J1939 Parameter Group Number (PGN) commands, which, depending on the diesel engine, the engineer may need to key [...]
Wireless CAN Bus Bridge with USB Interface
ESD Electronics announced its CAN-CBX-AIR/3, a wireless CAN Bus bridge with USB interface. The bridge meets the requirements according to ETSI EN 300 328 V.2.0.20 (RED) standard. Like the previous CAN-CBX-AIR/2 version, the CAN-CBX-AIR/3 module works with a carrier frequency of 2,4 GHz in the ISM band. The transmission distance is up to 200 m (~ 600 ft) line-of-sight [...]
Low-Cost, High-Performance Vehicle Network Interface Family With 4 CAN Bus and CAN FD Ports
Intrepid Control Systems, Inc. has announced their ValueCAN4 family, which also provides optional Ethernet (DoIP) and LIN connectivity. The device supports up to 1 Mbit/s for CAN bus connectivity and up to 10 Mbit/s for CAN FD communication. The ISO 11898-2 standard specifies currently transceiver chip parameters for 5 Mbit/s. The dongle family complies with USB 2.0 [...]
Truck Blind Spot Detection System Connects To SAE J1939 Bus
Preco Electronics announced their PreView Side Defender, an advanced side collision avoidance solution that has been developed specifically for the over-the-road (OTR) markets including trucking, municipalities, waste and recycling.The system warns operators of objects in the vehicle’s side blind zones, including pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicles, in order to reduce the incidence of side collisions. It can [...]
SAE J1939 To NMEA 2000 Gateway For Marine Engine Applications
Maretron introduced their J2K100 gateway, which attaches directly to SAE J1939 networks of compatible engines and transmissions and converts the SAE J1939 engine data to the NMEA 2000 marine digital interface. Critical engine, transmission, and genset data are distributed throughout the vessel over a single cable, which any NMEA 2000® compatible display can monitor. All the information [...]
Embedded ARM System Serves As SAE J1939 to Bluetooth Gateway
Systems like the Arduino, BeagleBone, or Raspberry Pi are great systems for rapid prototyping (and that’s the focus of my business). However, when it comes to exposing these systems to industrial environments, you may reach their limits easily. That includes primarily temperature range, splash water protection, and vibration. Some systems have options for an extended [...]
SAE J1939 to USB Gateway For ECU Simulation And Data Monitoring Under Windows, Linux, Android
As part of our embedded hardware and software development for CAN (Controller Area Network) based vehicle protocols, the first prototype of the jCOM.J1939.USB, an SAE J1939 to USB gateway, has passed the performance and quality tests successfully, and we are now ready to start production (the final version will be all black with a white [...]
