Use Cases
The CANedge1 is a powerful, standalone CAN logger for standalone CAN logging, diagnostics and development.
Note: If you need to remotely collect data via WiFi/3G/4G, check out the CANedge2.
Vehicle 'black box'
Need to monitor data from your vehicle fleet?
The CANedge1 is ideal for recording data over long periods from fleets - incl. cars (via OBD2) and heavy-duty vehicles (via J1939). With filters, compression & cyclic logging you can log years of data. Ideal for e.g. warranty/legal data storage or optimization.
Rare issue identification
Need to identify a rare, but critical issue?
If you have e.g. production equipment that periodically exhibts an issue the CANedge1 is a great diagnostics tool. Simply connect it and leave it in. If the issue occurs, you can extract the raw data, DBC convert it and plot it for quick diagnostics.
Equipment development & optimization
Need to optimize your CAN based equipment based on long-term data?
The standalone CANedge1 is ideal for recording data from equipment deployed in the field: It's durable, compact and simple to install. You can e.g. pre-configure the device - and ship it to the end-users for installation.
