SAE J1939 - GPS Module With 9-Pin Deutsch Connection Cable - Firmware Update
The jCOM.J1939.GPS module connects to an SAE J1939 network and reports the vehicle position (PGN 65267) with a five second frequency, according to the SAE J1939-71 Standard. The integrated J1939 protocol stack automatically negotiates a node address in the range of 128 to 247. The GPS data is broadcast by using the global destination address (255 [...]
How CAN Bus Automatic Baudrate Detection Works And What To Consider When Connecting To A Network
Automatic CAN Bus baudrate detection comes in handy when you need to connect to a CAN network without knowing its actual transmission speed. Rather than playing with CAN baudrate settings and testing if you are able to see data, the automatic detection will deliver the right result within seconds, however, depending on busload. A heavy [...]
Modular Keyboard Concept With CAN Bus And SAE J1939 Connection Reduces Vehicle Dashboard Wiring
The KeyCan product line by ama Instruments represents a new concept of modular keyboard that allows customization of dashboard and driver control panels in accordance with customer needs.Each switch of the keyboard is equipped with three red-green-blue LEDs showing their individual status. The brightness of the seven colors is configurable. The icon in the middle of each [...]

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 [...]
