CAN bus Interface Card: CAN-AC2-PCI

Area of application

Active, two-channel CAN bus PCI interface card to connect a PC to two independent CAN networks. The card is suited both to control and visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications. For instance, this enables the PC to be integrated into hierarchical network structures.

Functions
  • Active card with its own microcontroller
  • CAN API, optional CANopen API
  • Local buffering and preprocessing
  • High performance, takes over time-critical tasks from the PC
  • Transfer rate of up to 1 Mbps
  • 2 independent channels
  • Onboard switchable bus terminator
  • Same API for all form factors
  • Basis for powerful applications and analysis tools
  • Windows drivers for Vista, XP, 2000, NT, 9x; Linux drivers for Kernel 2.4 and 2.6
  • The following realtime environments are supported:
    • Ardence RTX for Windows XP/2000
    • Windows CE.NET 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0
