USB Module with 2 CAN FD Interfaces Plus Analog And Digital IRIG-B Inputs
The CAN-USB/400-FD by esd electronics is equipped with two independent CAN FD interfaces according to ISO 11898-1:2015; they are driven by the ISO 16845:2004 certified esdACC (esd advanced CAN Core) implemented in an Altera® FPGA. The interface is able to send and receive ISO conform CAN FD (up to 5 Mbit) or CAN 2.0 A/B messages. The CAN [...]
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 [...]
CoDeSys Controller Supports Up To Four CAN Bus, CANopen, SAE J1939 Channels
The DSE M643 from Deep Sea Electronics is a controller that can be used on mobile applications across many varied industries including construction, municipal, agricultural, transport, and military. The product comes with four independent CAN Bus interfaces, each one configurable for different CAN protocols including CANopen, SAE J1939, and CAN Bus. Each of the CAN Bus protocols offers their [...]
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 [...]
Data Acquisition From Heavy-Duty Vehicles Using The SAE J1939 CAN Bus
Modern vehicles have electronic control units (ECUs) to control various subsystems such as the engine, brakes, steering, air conditioning, and infotainment. These ECUs (or simply `controllers') are networked together to share information, and output directly measured and calculated data to each other. This in-vehicle network is a data goldmine for improved maintenance, measuring vehicle performance and [...]
SAE J1939 - GPS Module - Firmware Update To Support Time & Date And Vehicle Direction & Speed
The jCOM.J1939.GPS device by Copperhill Technologies 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 [...]

CAN Bus Data Logger Comes With USB And WiFi Connectivity
CSS (Denmark) has announced its CANLogger3000, a device that stores recorded CAN Bus data on a 16-GiB SD-card. The device is also available within the United States. The logged bus traffic can be retrieved per Wifi connection at up to 70 Mbit/s or via USB. In stationary mode, the data-logger is able to connect to a Wifi [...]
Vehicle Computer With SAE J1939 Interface For Utility Vehicles, Agricultural And Construction Machines
Syslogic has announced their VSL Compact 81 vehicle computer as part of its mobile computing range. The computers are used in trains, busses, and even automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in construction as well as agricultural machinery.All electronic components are firmly soldered in the vehicle computer, which also has no moving parts. Instead of rotating memory, industrial [...]
Combined Acceleration Sensor And Gyroscope With SAE J1939 Connectivity
Gemac Chemnitz (Germany) announced their dynamic inclinometer family of products featuring CANopen and SAE J1939 connectivity. The dynamic inclinometers provide angle measurements in moving applications. Combining an acceleration sensor with an angular rate sensor enables inclination measurements with a resolution of 0,01° and an accuracy better than ±2°. The one-dimensional measurement range is 360°, the two-dimensional versions [...]
