Analogue Input Modules
CANtronik support a wide range of CAN based input and output modules including the user programmable CANtronik Configurable Input Module (CCIM).
Input and output modules are generally used with one or more displays to provide a system solution for either monitoring or controlling something. This may be an engine or a complete vehicle or a process plant or machine. CANtronik can advise on suitability for any application from low volume specialist equipment to medium to high volume applications where a custom designed module may be more appropriate.
TheCCIM can connect to up to 7 analogue inputs each individually programmable to read voltage, current or resistance. Each channel has full linearisation capability with an easy to use tool for configuration; this tool is called the CCIM PC Config Tool. This PC tools is aimed at users that are not software programmers, it is simple to use and has detailed tutorials for the Translation Table Utility and the CCIM Config Tool itself. Effectively a user can "map" analogue signals and pulses to CAN Bus.
See the CCIM PC Config Tutorial here.
The CCIM is fully compatible with J1939 or NMEA 2000 CAN bus systems. Custom versions also support RS485 with MODBUS or J1587 support and also RS232/422 is an option.
The CCIM was originally conceived to convert a mechanically controlled engine into one with an electronic output, for connecting to the modern range of J1939/NMEA 2000 engine Monitoring Displays, such as the CANtronik EM or soon to be released CANtronik MFD displays. Alternatively the CCIM is a great partner to the CANvu 260/261 CCDM display. The CCDM has a very similar, non-programmers, PC Tool to that of the CCIM allowing users to “map” CAN Bus data to a number of custom gauges on the CANvu 260/261 screen. Up to 4 gauges per page can be configured and up to 10 pages can be accessed by the displays buttons. The CCDM PC Config Tool also has a very detailed tutorial.
