Intelligent CAN module with 2 isolated and software-selectable high/low speed CAN ports
This module is a very versatile intelligent CAN-bus I/O module. Due to the on-board microcontroller and its firmware which handles incoming and outgoing CAN messages autonomously the real-time target machine's main CPU is offloaded from directly managing the low-level flow of CAN messages. The module offers 2 isolated CAN ports. Each port can be software-selected for highspeed or lowspeed operation. The xPC Target driver blockset for this module offers a complete Setup block and various types of Receive and Transmit blocks supporting FIFO mode as well as Object mode.
Each IO601 I/O module comes with xPC Target driver blocks and Simulink test models and an external I/O cable for easy loopback testing.
This I/O module in the PMC form factor and can be used in any Speedgoat real-time target machine with the exception of the Classic real-time target machine.
Highlights
2 galvanically isolated CAN 2.0b ports
Software selectable highspeed/lowspeed mode (individually for each channel)
Powerful on-board microcontroller running low-level CAN firmware
'Lean' on-board CAN firmware leads to minimal receive and transmit driver block latencies
Extensive xPC Target driver blockset
Support for SAE J1939 upon request
Setup driver block downloads microcontroller firmware each time a target application is initialized: Easy update of firmware
