PC Interfaces for CAN, CAN FD, CANopen, DeviceNet and SAE J1939 The IXXAT PC/CAN interfaces enable PC applications to access CAN networks with a unique variety of different PC interface standards. You can select the PC/CAN interface that suits your application, performance requirements or required unit costs. Various variants and interfaces Highlights Common driver interface for easy exchange of the PC interface type without any changes to your application IXXAT CAN interfaces are – depending on the variant – modularly designed and can be equipped with up to four CAN high-speed channels....

Sample: PC/CAN Interfaces for control and analysis Powerful driver packages with common application interface Despite the variety of different PC/CAN interfaces, all interfaces can be operated with the hardware-independent drivers for Windows (VCI) and real-time operating systems (ECI) by using a uniform programming interface. Switching between the PC/CAN interfaces type is very easy and can be made without changes to your application. Thus, you are already well prepared for future technologies. Common driver interface for all interfaces Plug-in board for control applications Mobile access...

DIN rail bus backbone bus In terms of robustness, temperature range and safety, IXXAT repeaters are specially designed for use in an industrial environment. The reliability of a system can be significantly increased while typically saving costs due to simpler wiring. CAN...

Application example: Elevator system For realization of an intelligent load management the CAN networks of two elevator systems are linked via Ethernet using the IXXAT CAN@net NT 200 gateway. Application example: Wind turbine Control unit Three pitch control-drives shall communicate with the master controller via CAN. IXXAT CAN Repeaters enable star connection of the individual blades and enable stable communication by eliminating EMI effects and rebuild signals for transmission via sliprings. Control unit ent technologies, such as Bluetooth, Ethernet or PROFINET. R Nacelle Control Unit CAN...

CAN Analyzing and DiagnosticcanAnalyser and diagnostic toolscanAnalyser and Modules error frames can be evaluated together with the signals from a database. New, script-based statistics functions also permit quick, easy adaptation to your specific application needs. Additional functions are provided by optional modules, such as the protocol specific display of messages in CANo- The canAnalyser is a powerful, versatile tool for development, testing and maintenance of Controller Area Network systems. The software package is based on a modular concept and employs special features that offer...

Diagnostic tools pen, DeviceNet or J1939 based systems. Customer-specific functions can be easily integrated via an open .NET programming interface in the form of individual modules. The canAnalyser is based on the VCI driver and can be used with all IXXAT PC CAN interfaces. By using IXXAT diagnostic tools, CAN systems can be analyzed and evaluated upon installation and during operation. The tools allow recording of the transmitted data and errors as well as detection of signal, transmission and wiring errors. Based on the analysis results, errors can be quickly and easily eliminated or an...
