CANblue II, Wireless CAN PC-interface
Wireless CAN PC-interface with Bluetooth
Product highlights
- Quick start-up and connection
- High transmission range
- Internal antenna
- High data throughput
- Flexible options (combination of several CANblue II's)
- Easy configuration via Bluetooth in ASCII format
Bridge mode
The bridge mode allows the user to set-up a CAN-Bluetooth-CAN bridge by using two CANblue II devices. Message exchange occurs on layer 2 and is transparent. The device can also be used in systems with CANopen, DeviceNet or customer-specific protocols. CAN-ID filters can be set for data exchange via Bluetooth.
When using more than 2 CANblue II's multiple CAN buses are wirelessly interconnected.
PC mode with VCI driver support
These modes make the wireless connection to a PC or notebook with Bluetooth, possible.
Because it is supported by the VCI CAN driver, the CANblue II can be operated like any other CAN PC interface. Consequently, wireless access to CAN systems can also be easily achieved with existing VCI-based application programs and Ixxat tools.
Serial mode
In the serial mode CANblue II connects wirelessly to any Bluetooth device that supports Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP).
CAN messages are hereby exchanged either in an ASCII or a binary format.
