The PCAN-RS-232 is a programmable module for the communication between RS-232 and CAN. The conversion of data traffic is done via a NXP LPC21 series microcontroller.

The behaviour of the PCAN-RS-232 can be programmed freely for specific applications. The firmware is created using the included development package with GNU compiler for C and C++ and is then transferred to the module via CAN. Various programming examples facilitate the implementation of own solutions.

On delivery the PCAN-RS-232 is provided with a demo firmware that routes from CAN to RS-232 and vice versa. It allows to configure the data transfer as well as the hardware with serial control commands. The corresponding source code is included as an example in the scope of supply.

Control Technologies can also provide custom software functionality, within the realms of what is possible, to your requirements. Talk to one of engineers to discuss your requirements.

The PCAN-MicroMod FD plug-in board can be purchased together with ready-to-use motherboards that provide peripherals for specific requirements. For the connection of CAN, I/O, and power supply, spring terminal connectors are used. The motherboard PCAN-MicroMod FD Analog 1 puts the emphasis on analog inputs and outputs, which are provided with appropriate protective circuitry.

The PCAN-MicroMod FD is configured using the supplied Windows software. In addition to simple I/O mapping to CAN IDs, function blocks are also available for processing the data. The configuration created on the computer is transferred via the CAN bus to the PCAN-MicroMod FD which then runs as an independent CAN node. Multiple modules can be configured independently on a CAN bus.

All PCAN-MicroMod FD products can alternatively be operated with CANopen firmware. Licenses for the CANopen firmware are available from our partner Embedded Systems Academy.

The Multiple Input Output module (MIO) is a universal, modular controller for use both in the industrial and automotive fields.

The module has two CAN interfaces as well as multiple analog and digital inputs and outputs. Incoming signals can be processed by the microcontroller and then forwarded to the CAN interfaces or output channels. For this purpose, the behaviour of the PCAN-MIO module can be freely configured using a comprehensive Windows^® software. A large number of function blocks and other settings are available to help the user in creating such a configuration.

A bus structure also enables expansion of the number of inputs and outputs with additional modules. Customer-specific requirements can be implemented in doing so.
