CAN Telematics Logger

CAN Telematics logger

CAN Telematics logger


Connect any CAN device and record the decoded CAN frames in a non-volatile memory!

CAN datalogger is an advanced logger device that can acquire raw CAN bus frames from a vehicle or any industrial device and record the decoded physical data in internal storage. The DBC file for the desired CAN device can be uploaded using a customized tool and the device records CAN bus frames independent of the protocols like J1939, OBD2, CANOpen, NMEA etc. Once recorded, the log files can be downloaded in industry standard .CSV or .MF4 format using the same tool.

CAN Telematics Logger is suitable for specialized applications like passenger cars, heavy truck telematics where OBD2 or J1939 telematics data need to be acquired from the CAN bus with the DBC file provided by OEM. This device offers ease of integration and reliable performance with harsh automotive environment.

Applications

J1939 telematics in smart agriculture

Smart farming uses J1939 telematics to monitor and optimize the performance of heavy-duty agricultural machinery, such as tractors or harvesters, during field operations. Our cost efficient, standalone telematics logger can be connected to the CAN bus of the agricultural equipment via the J1939 connector.
The logger acquires the J1939 frames based on the uploaded DBC and stores the decoded data in its internal memory device. Later, the recorded data can be easily downloaded via USB using the custom PreciCon application. These decoded data can be used to diagnose the issues in both mechanical and electronic units. The telematics logger supports real-time monitoring of engine parameters, fuel usage, and operational efficiency, helping farmers optimize machinery performance. This solution provides actionable insights for maintenance planning, reducing downtime and improving overall productivity.
