New CAN and LIN hardware and Software

["Chris Stephens" <sales@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Announcing the availability some new products available from Computer
Solutions

PCAN Explorer
-----------------------

The big brother of our PCANview package, which is included with every PCAN
interface, the PCAN-Explorer program provides a really powerful Windows
program for investigating what is happening on the CAN bus and also for
controlling and interacting with CAN systems. It can log data to disk for
later review, display and decode messages and their data fields using easily
understood English and fixed or floating numbers (rather than HEX). Up to 4
messages can be logged on a strip chart type display to show visually how
they change with time . There is support for a large number of transmit
messages, an extensive macro language and VB scripts are also included. A
visual panel option includes meters, strip charts, sliders and buttons all
of which can be linked to CAN messages or macros to provide a powerful user
interface

CAN open Magic
------------------------

For those using CANopen ( a protocol based on CAN that allows units from
different manufacturers to easily interoperate ) we have the PCAN open Magic
package which provides similar facilities to the PCAN-Explorer but using
standard CANopen terminology. Also the built in CANopen Network Controls
provide CANopen specific commands such as identifying all the nodes on the
net.

LIN to CAN Gateway and interface
-------------------------------------------------

This module links LIN to CAN or LIN to Serial allowing a PC with a CAN
interface to control a LIN network.
With the low cost of PC-CAN units and the powerful CAN analysis software
available ( PCAN-Explorer) it makes a reasonable priced PC-LIN interface.
