Measurement software opens way to CAN interface

Physical connection between PC and IPEhub2 is supported by LAN cable as well as by wireless LAN. IPEhub2 establishes its own access point as well as its own WLAN network via WLAN interface with included DHCP server functionality. Thus, each computer and tablet/smartphone can comfortably connect with the device and receive data. The data logging function for self-sufficient data storage on an SD card with up to 8 GB is another advantage -it provides the possibility to import and analyse data directly from the device to IPEmotion via LAN/WLAN. The conversion of CAN traffic data of IPETRONIK modules is performed automatically via the related CAN description file (DBC).

Users will benefit from wireless data transfer in off highway applications in surroundings of construction and agricultural machinery, which do not allow data acquisition near the machinery and equipment due to hazards or lack of space, as well as in fleet tests for individual data visualisation of the test vehicle using IPEmotion App. Therefore, road behaviour, driving profile and important system data can be controlled easily and quickly. IPEmotion App Release 2.10 now also supports smartphones and provides the direct import of the IPEhub2 configuration, which means loading and restoring into the memory of the IPEhub2. Moreover, it is possible to save changes in the configuration to control limit values and to generate reports in PDF format.

With the data manager, the user is able to export acquisition data with additional functions, like data reduction, in which the sampling rate/number of acquisition data is reduced by a free selectable sampling rate. Freely adjustable sampling rates/numbers can be calculated and displayed as MIN, MAX or average values, which also contributes to data reduction. With the ZIP compressed export function in MDF4.1 format, the size of exported acquisition data can be reduced significantly.
