for receiving data from onboard CAN interface, convertingreceived data and sending created messages to RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces.
Modern commercial vehicle has dozens of electronic equipment on board (on-board units). CAN bus (SAE J1939) or J1708 (SAE J1587) is used for data exchange between on-board units. Some part of these data is useful for fleet performance efficiency analysis. The task of telematics system – gather and process the data, transfer it to a web-based telematics service.
Role of MasterCAN data converter within vehicle telematics system – filtering out excess messages, collecting and converting information useful for vehicle telematics: instant and trip fuel consumption, total fuel consumption, RPM, fuel level, engine temperature, oil pressure, etc.
MasterCAN allows to avoid manual parsing of CAN/J1708 bus messages, reduces load on CAN-port of telematics unit, speeds up telematics system configuration and launch.
Tasks
Continuous data reading of CAN bus (SAE J1939) and J1708 bus (SAE J1587)
Selecting and arranging CAN parameters into messages (PGN) easy to read and process by telematics unit (GPS tracker)
Data translation from CAN/J1708 to CAN, RS-232, and RS-485 output messages
Generating special Telematics messages, which contain the most essential telematics information
