By using a Virtual CAN Bus, we separate the control task from other tasks. The distributed embedded control system can be developed using standard CAN Controllers and transceivers in a traditional way with well proven tools.
Other tasks such as encryption, transmitter authentication, re-flashing, etc. can be developed by experts in these fields and carried out by using other protocols. With modern technology, the different tasks can run in parallel and simultaneously communicate on the same physical layer.
It is a great advantage to separate the control problems from other problems. The control problem can be solved once and for all by the control experts and other problems by experts in their respective technology fields.
Kvaser Memorator R SemiPro is an advanced, rugged, two channel CAN (controller area network) to USB interface and standalone data logger - two products in one! To ruggedize the design, Kvaser has soldered the SD card to the PCB to make sure it works error free even when exposed to vibration and shocks. Galvanic isolation and an aluminium housing complete the package.
In standalone mode, this device logs data to an SD card, whilst in interface mode, it connects the CAN bus to the PC via USB. Connect this datalogger to a PC to configure baud rates, trigger conditions and filters using the Kvaser Memorator Tools software, included.
One device for desktop and laptop, combining a standalone CAN bus data logger and a USB CAN bus interface.
Quick and easy plug-and-play installation.
Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B) identifiers.
CAN messages are time-stamped with 2 microseconds resolution.
Large on-board RAM buffer for CAN messages.
Two high-speed CAN channels (compliant with ISO 11898-2), 10kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s.
Galvanic isolation to protect the hardware.
Power from CAN bus or from the USB side.
Built-in real time (calendar) clock with battery backup.
Logger status is indicated with five externally visible LEDs.
Driver support for major operating systems.
Support for Kvaser Linx J1587.
IP65 rated lightweight aluminium housing protects against dust and moisture.
Filters
Log continuously, or logging can be triggered by creating advanced triggers based on messages, data signal values, error messages, external trigger's falling or rising edge, and I/O signals.
Pre- and post-triggers are available without buffer size restrictions, limited by disk space only.
Filter out selectable messages and/or signals to be logged. The identifiers can be picked from a database, or all messages can be logged.
Support for pass as well as stop filters.
Create a counting pass filter to have a message logged at enumerated occurrence.
Handles up to 20,000 msgs/s in standalone logger mode.
External digital output that can drive an LED or a buzzer.
Less than 250 ms boot up time.
Supports Silent Mode - Log bus traffic safely without interfering and "listen-only" mode for bus analysis tools.
Memory Cards and Functions
One fixed 4GB memory card.
Set up several devices in a daisy chain for larger logging capacity.
Upload logged data via USB at 1.2 MB/s when connected via USB 2.0 HiSpeed.
Configuration Software in the PC
Easy to use graphic configuration tool - Memorator Tools.
Configuration of the CAN controller, i.e. bit rate and filters.
Configuration of the trigger conditions.
Configuration of filter for messages to be stored.
Configuration upload and download via USB.
Using the included Kvaser Dispatcher software, a complete measurement setup can be turned into a self-installing package that is sent to a remote location to carry out a specific logging task.
Windows drivers for all our CAN hardware.
Please check release notes for information on which Windows versions are supported.
It also contain a driver for the virtual CAN bus.
A free of charge, general-purpose CAN bus monitor. Works with all CAN interfaces from Kvaser. Windows 2000 or later is recommended but Windows 98 should also work.
Software development kit - everything you need to develop software for the Kvaser CAN and LIN interfaces. Link libraries, header files, sample programs, Microsoft Visual Basic and Borland Delphi components, documentation, and more. Note: you need to download and install the appropriate device drivers separately.
