Description
This thermocouple-to-CAN module generates temperature data from 4 thermocouple sensors and outputs it via CAN bus (standalone) or USB The module supports all thermocouple types (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T) and can easily be connected in series.
The module can be integrated into any CAN bus system - e.g. to provide temperature data for your control units or existing CAN hardware. For example, you can use the module as an add-on for CANedge - ideal for engine test benches, EGT analyses or temperature telematics.

Configure each thermocouple channel type independently (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T).CONFIGURABLE
Configure CAN IDs, bit rate, message frequencies and more via the JSON configuration and GUI
Easily add temperature data to any CAN bus system
Add temperature sensor data via 4 thermocouples to your CAN bus - e.g. for use by ECUs or CAN hardware.
- Compatible with any high-speed CAN bus (2.0A, 2.0B)
- Fully configure CAN IDs, bit rate and message frequency
- Concatenate multiple modules for 8, 12, 16, ... Channels
- Power supply with 5-26 V DC via standard DB9 adapter cable
- Optionally, you can record the data via any CAN interface/logger/... .
- Example: Use as an add-on for the CANedge (power supply via 2nd port)
- DBC file included for simple decoding into a human-readable form
- White label e.g. for integration into your production
Example: Logging/streaming sensor data
The CANmod.temp is often used as an "add-on" for the CANedge. With this setup you can, for example, record vehicle data via channel 1 and temperature data via channel 2. The data can be easily DBC-decoded, for example via the asammdf GUI, Python or MATLAB.
You can also stream the sensor data with SavvyCAN in real time via USB to display raw/decoded data (e.g. via graphs) - ideal for validating your setup before deployment or for lab testing.
With the CANmod.temp module, you can connect up to 4 thermocouple sensors (configurable type) and output the temperature data to any CAN bus via configurable CAN frames. You can install the CANmod.temp "standalone" in any CAN system (cars, lorries, ships, ...) to feed configurable CAN frames with temperature data into the existing CAN traffic. For example, the CANmod.temp module can be used as a plug & play add-on module for the CANedge (power supply via the 2nd port) - so you can combine CAN/LIN data with time-synchronised temperature data.
If you use CANmod.temp to output data directly in your CAN bus, the data can be used by other control units in the network, for example. The CANmod.temp can be configured via the USB port using our online/offline configuration editor tool (or a simple JSON text editor). You can easily combine and daisy-chain multiple CANmod modules to add different sensor types and/or more channels
The device allows you to output temperature signals in one CAN frame with a resolution of 1 °C or in two CAN frames with a resolution of 0.01 °C
