CAN data logger

The high-speed controller area network (CAN) to USB data logger boasts the ability to run user-developed scripts to suit a wide variety of CAN networking applications. It has been designed with engineers in mind who need customized features such as CAN protocol converters, CAN gateways, advanced CAN logging functionality, CAN node simulation, and standalone ECU programming. The Kvaser Eagle can be applied to industries as broad ranging as automotive development, industrial diagnostics and oil and gas monitoring. The script functionality allows users to develop highly customised applications written in the t programming language. The programming language, which is event driven and C-like, is compiled into efficient byte code for execution on Eagle on the developer’s PC. The company also has a network of technical associates with different domain expertise who will become a major source of application-specific Kvaser t software for Eagle.
The Kvaser Eagle is based on an Arm 9 core that runs at 200MHz with minimal current consumption. This enables the battery to operate for a week whilst waiting for a CAN message. The SDRAM and NAND flash in the Arm 9 provides two hundred times the memory capacity found in Kvaser’s Memorator Professional interface and data logger and there is the option to increase memory capacity, should users require it.
