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.
The Kvaser USBcan Pro 4xHS is an advanced, portable multi-channel CAN/CAN FD [4 Channel] to USB real time interface that handles transmission and reception of standard and extended CAN messages on the CAN bus with a high time stamp precision. Features include t programming and MagiSync™, which makes it possible to synchronise time stamps across multiple Kvaser MagiSync™-enabled devices without requiring extra wires.
Multi-channel USB CAN interface with Kvaser t programmability.
20 000 msg/s per channel, each timestamped with a resolution of 1 μs.
Kvaser MagiSync™ – automatic time synchronization.
Supports CAN FD, up to 8 Mbit/s (with correct physical layer implementation).
Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers.
Supports silent mode for analysis tools – listen to the bus without interfering.
High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit/s.
Industrial grade temperature range, −40 oC to 85 oC.
Galvanic isolation.
Fully compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000® and DeviceNet.
Simultaneous operation of multiple devices.
Power is taken from the USB bus.
Includes a 4-channel breakout cable.
Warranty
2-Year Warranty.
Support
Documentation, software and drivers can be downloaded for free at kvaser.com/downloads.
Kvaser CANLIB SDK is a free resource that includes everything you need to develop software for the Kvaser CAN interfaces. Includes full documentation and many program samples, written in C, C , C#, Delphi, and Visual Basic.
All Kvaser CAN interface boards share a common software API. Programs written for one interface type will run without modifications on the other interface types!
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.
