CANedge1 (32 GB) – 2x CAN BUS Data Logger

The plug & play 2xCAN/LIN logger records timestamped CAN data (Classical/CAN FD) to the extractable 8 GB industrial SD card (optionally 32 GB).

It’s extremely easy-to-use: Simply power the device via your CAN bus connector to start logging raw CAN data. Extract the data and process it using 100% free open source software/API tools – incl. J1939/OBD2 DBC conversion & graphical plots.

The CANedge1 is ideal for monitoring CAN bus systems over long periods – e.g. for legal purposes, vehicle development, diagnostics, maintenance or research.

Features:

• Dual high speed CAN/LIN (incl. CAN FD) channels
• Binary MDF4 log file format (extensive software support)
• Lossless logging at full bus load – with 50 µs RTC resolution
• Advanced message filtering & transmit functionality
• Start/stop logging triggers based on CAN ID & data bytes
• Silent mode, bit rate auto-detection, cyclic logging
• Extractable 8-32 GB industrial SD card (= months of data)
• Fast boot time. Safely disconnect during use

Specifications

CAN BUS:

• Channels: 2 x CAN/CAN FD channels
• Standard: ISO 11898: Compliant with CAN (up to 1 Mbit/s) and ISO & Bosch CAN FD (up to 5 Mbit/s)
• Protocols: Log raw data from CAN based protocols (J1939, FMS, CANopen, NMEA 2000, OBD2, …)
• Identifiers: Compliant with CAN specifications 2.0A (11-Bit ID) and 2.0B (29-Bit ID)
• Bit-Rate Auto-Detect: Bit rate can be auto-detected or set manually
• Retransmission: Configurable retransmission of frames that have lost arbitration or been disturbed by errors
• Transceiver Protection: +/- 16 kV HBM ESD, ±15 kV IEC ESD, ±70 V bus fault, short circuit

LIN BUS:

• Channels: 2 x LIN channels (Slaves)
• Standard: Compliant with LIN 2.0 up to 20 Kbit/s (“enhanced” checksum format)
• Transceiver Protection: +/- 8 kV HBM ESD, +/- 1.5 kV CDM, +/- 58 V bus fault

Data Logging:

• SD Card: 8 GB extractable Class 10 industrial micro SD (SDHC) included – read at 80 MB/s
• Parallel CAN/LIN: Record data from up to 2 x CAN channels + 2 x LIN channels, simultaneously
• Real-Time Clock: Yes – CAN frames are date & timestamped with 50 microsecond resolution. The RTC can be configured to match local time zones (default: UTC)
• Log File Format: Log data in industry standard binary MDF4 (easily convert to e.g. CSV, ASC, pandas, MATLAB, …)
• Silent Mode: Configurable silent mode: Restricted (acknowledge only) or monitoring (zero transmission)
• Filters: 128/64 regular/extended ID filters per channel (range, mask, acceptance, rejection, prescaling)
• Transmit: Transmit lists of CAN frames per channel (single-shot/periodic) – e.g. for OBD2 requests
• Cyclic Logging: Optional cyclic logging mode (oldest log file is deleted when SD card is full)
• Advanced Triggers: Control signal lets you start/stop logging based on custom CAN IDs & data thresholds
• CAN Heartbeat: Optionally transmit heartbeat CAN frame with device status, storage used & RTC time
• File Split: Configurable log file split size (by size: 1-512 MB and/or by time period: 0-86400s)
• Power Safe: 100% power safe data logging – no file corruption when disconnected
• Unique Device ID: Each device has a globally unique ID ensuring unique log file naming
• Data Encryption: Log files can be encrypted at rest on the SD card for security/GDPR/CCPA purposes [pending FW]
