CAN APIs
The CAN-API, which is standard for all CAN interfaces from Softing, provides powerful communication mechanisms for CAN applications. Local buffering and preprocessing on the VCI result in high performance and a reduction of time-critical tasks for the PC. Special automation APIs, such as CANopen and DeviceNET-API, are also available.
D-PDU API
The standardized programming interface provides applications with powerful multi-channel communication mechanisms with vehicle protocols, such as Diagnostics on CAN (ISO 15765) and UDS (ISO 14229). It also allows integration into diagnostic systems in accordance with ISO 22900 (MVCI). D-PDU API is available as an option.
Scalability
The CAN-AC2-PCI interface supports two independent CAN bus channels. By combining several CAN-AC2-PCI boards (or even other CAN/EDIC® interfaces), the number of communication channels available on the PC system can quickly be adapted to the relevant application.
Environment
The galvanic isolation of PC and vehicle interfaces enables trouble-free operation even in harsh manufacturing environments.
