Data Logging with CANlog

CANlog 3 and CANlog 4 record the data communication of CAN and LIN systems. They receive and save messages and then analyze them according to the specified configuration.

These loggers are compact companions in vehicles for small test tasks. They are easy to operate and log up to 64 MB. In addition, they can be used flexibly for different application areas, particularly for gateway applications.

Advantages

Standalone tools for minor logging tasks
Low current consumption in sleep mode
Filter and trigger conditions for selective logging
Flexible configuring with configuration software
Offline analyses in CANoe, CANalyzer, CANape, and vSignalyzer

Data loggers CANlog 3 and CANlog 4

Data logger CANlog 3

Data logger CANlog 4

Application Areas

Data Logger
It is easy to filter, receive, log and send messages and signals using CANlog
Classing Device
CANlog is well equipped for processing the logged data and creating classing tables
Gateway
If an ECU cannot be connected directly to the CAN bus, CANlog can be used as a gateway for indirect bus communication

Functions

CANlog 3 and CANlog 4 each support up to four CAN channels.
CANlog 4 additionally has a CAN channel that can be used as a measurement channel.
The loggers record in parallel analog and digital input signals.
With CANlog 3 the data are saved in internal memory (max. 64 MB), and with CANlog 4 on exchangeable flash cards (max. 64 MB).
Events can be displayed depending on the configuration via the digital outputs and LEDs.
The configuration program included with the product allows you to create a configuration customized for different applications.
Additionally there are functions for using CANlog as a data logger, classing device and as a gateway.

I/O Boards

For more flexibility, you can extend both CANlog devices with digital inputs and outputs, analog inputs, or a LIN interface with I/O boards.

Board	Features
D4I4O	4 digital inputs (0 ... 45 V) 4 digital outputs (5 ... 45 V, 500 mA)
D4I4O-L	Like D4I4O, with additional 1 LIN interface
A6I	6 analog inputs (0 ... 18 V, 12 bit resolution): 4 inputs available to user 2 inputs only internal
A6I-L	Like A6I, with additional 1 LIN interface
A8ID1	8 analog inputs (0 ... 18 V, 12 bit resolution): 6 inputs available to user 2 inputs only internal 1 TTL input and output
A8ID1-L	Like A8ID1, with additional 1 LIN interface
LIN adapter	1 LIN interface
