Can Expander

What CAN I / O Expander used for exploiting the CAN Analog 1-4?
Or it could be used for Camsync In 2 Gear sensor?
Thanks for the tip.

Hi!

Our CAN-BUS module is connected to EMU device and the you get CANL, CANH and 4 analog inputs.

According 2nd question, I'm not sure if I understand correctly.


Here is a picture of the module:

Thank you for the example of module.
I would not use the input CAM2.
I use the analog-input 1 for oil pressure, analog-input 2 for an oil temperature, analog-input 3 for the fuel pressure and analog-input 4 as a MUX switch.
And I would use a sensor gearboxes so I'm missing one input ....

CAM2 is digital input only :(

You can use calculated gear using RPM and VSS.

If you want to use gear sensor CAN module is an option for you (4 extra analog inputs)

CAN expadner is just for can communication and 4 extra analogs.

EGT2CAN is CAN device you can connect to EMU via CAN to have up to 8 EGT probes.
We will offer EGT2CAN at the begining of February

Hi!

CAN2BT module is under developement.

So in general there is no practical limitation how many devices you can connect to CAN BUS.
So you can connect dashboard, dataloge, EGT2CAN, CAN2BT and so on.

I am wondering the same thing. Can I use CAN-bus and Bluetooth at the same time with one module?
Do you have this module called "CAN2BT" already in the market?

Am I correct? Only one module can be connected to the extension port?

I hate to bring up an old thread but this is a thread that was never answered so I will ask the question again, how do you connect the CAN expansion module and the CAN BT module to use at the same time
