In this case, the VNT was used to acquire CAN data for use in simulations, prototype and test. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kvaser’s BlackBird v2 was attached to the base of the car where it acquired CAN data and sent it wirelessly to a Simulink application on a host laptop where a race engineer could monitor racecar data and tune controller settings. This enabled students to drive the car and experience their self-tuned control algorithms for themselves. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Whilst a primary design consideration for choosing Kvaser’s CAN interfaces was compatibility to MathWorks’ Vehicle Network Toolbox, Christoph explains: “The wireless capabilities of the BlackBird v2 allowed us to expand our project towards wireless telemetry data processing. Using the BlackBird as a major component for a professional test and tuning workflow is definitively a success factor.” [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In line with good design practice, he cautions: “We would encourage users to design fail-safe systems. Wireless connections are always dependent on surrounding conditions and hence a system should work independently. Teams who don’t want to rely on wireless communication, will find the log-and-replay feature of VNT helpful.” It is for that reason that other Kvaser CAN interfaces were also used for the demo.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Read about the demo at MathWorks Racing Lounge Blog here.

The event was expected to appeal to approximately 50 engineers, but almost 140 attendees showed up!

The speakers included Holger Zeltwanger, Managing Director of CiA, Mr. Xiao Kuan, Hirain’s Technical Director and Kent Lennartsson, Research Manager for Kvaser AB. Topics covered included an introduction to CAN FD, CANopen FD, J1939 and CAN FD flashing.

Commented Cindy Liu, Managing Director of Kvaser China: “We were delighted to share our knowledge in this way. Worth noting is that this audience was highly knowledgeable about CAN and wanted to learn about CAN FD for their own benefit, or indeed, because they are involved in CAN FD projects.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

[/vc_column_text][vc_text_separator title="Software Update Highlights"][vc_column_text]

Timezone Settings

Kvaser has added a new timezone setting in the Converter library within Kvaser CANlib SDK. When analysing logfiles, it can help to relate data to the timezone in question, so this feature allows Kvaser Memorator users to choose the local timezone when examining the logged data, rather than the default UTC. The option applies to calendar timestamps and file creation/conversion date/time within the latest version of Kvaser Memorator Config Tool (v5.12). Also in Kvaser Memorator Config Tool (v5.12), triggers can now be set on both rising and falling edges. Users will need to update to the latest firmware to take advantage of this feature.

Single Shot: CAN FD

The single shot feature previously added to our CANlib SDK has now been extended to CAN FD message support in Kvaser t programs.

t Program Datalogger Controls

t programs data logger controls have been expanded to include the setting of the pretrigger time from within the t program. This allows the user to adjust the amount of data recorded based on the trigger condition met in the t program.

Edit Channel Name

The ability to edit customer channel name in the Kvaser Device Guide within CANlib, marks the other notable addition to this release.[/vc_column_text][vc_button_raket text="Download Release Notes" page_id="https://www.kvaser.com/software/7330130980150/relnotes/relnotes_canlib.txt"][/vc_column][/vc_row] [post_title] => Kvaser Software Release September 2017: Local Timestamp and Multiple Triggers Added [post_excerpt] => Kvaser has added local timestamp, multiple triggers, and a new timezone setting in the Converter library within Kvaser CANlib SDK.

Customers will appreciate the lightweight, easy-to-hold, yet highly durable qualities of our entire range of Rugged products.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="18482"][vc_column_text]We know that CAN communications don’t always happen in pristine, protected environments. Engineers working in the field need tough devices—CAN interfaces that can perform in service bays, construction sites, logging operations and fields just as well as they do in the lab. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce two brand new ruggedized products: the Leaf Light R v2 and USBcan R v2 2xHS. The Leaf Light R v2 is a ruggedized version of our popular Leaf Light HS v2 single-channel CAN USB interface, while the USBcan R v2 2xHS is a ruggedized version similar to our USBcan Pro 2xHS v2. Both interfaces are designed to handle real-world conditions in the field without missing a beat. Their IP65 rating makes them both dustproof and splashproof. An operating temperature range of -40 to 70°C means they’ll have no trouble working in inhospitable environments. A lightweight aluminum housing with a polyurethane coating helps protect against damage, and tough polyurethane coated cables are engineered for years of use in demanding environments. Besides their ruggedized characteristics, both interfaces deliver the performance you’d expect from their standard versions. That includes backwards compatibility with older hardware and compatibility with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000, DeviceNet and Kvaser CANlib. Ready to learn more, upgrade or request a free trial?

Please note that if you have problems loading the Canlib dll in Python, it is recommended you update to the latest version of the Python Canlib.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Firmware for Kvaser Eagle & Blackbird v2: Additional functionality to report the hardware status to Kvaser Device Guide and the XML-parser in t program now handles comments and prolog, so users can now parse their well-commented xml files using t Programs on the Kvaser device.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kvaser Memorator Config Tool: The process of importing old KMC files has been updated, so users can now import a KMC file created for an older Kvaser Eagle, Kvaser Memorator or Kvaser Memorator Professional device into any of the available target devices. (Please note: that a KMC file which includes Pro-features will not correctly convert to a Non-Pro device.)[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Windows Driver Signing: The Kvaser Windows Drivers are now signed by Microsoft and will be accepted on a fresh machine with UEFI boot and Driver Signature Enforcement enabled.

In this case, the VNT was used to acquire CAN data for use in simulations, prototype and test. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kvaser’s BlackBird v2 was attached to the base of the car where it acquired CAN data and sent it wirelessly to a Simulink application on a host laptop where a race engineer could monitor racecar data and tune controller settings. This enabled students to drive the car and experience their self-tuned control algorithms for themselves. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Whilst a primary design consideration for choosing Kvaser’s CAN interfaces was compatibility to MathWorks’ Vehicle Network Toolbox, Christoph explains: “The wireless capabilities of the BlackBird v2 allowed us to expand our project towards wireless telemetry data processing. Using the BlackBird as a major component for a professional test and tuning workflow is definitively a success factor.” [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In line with good design practice, he cautions: “We would encourage users to design fail-safe systems. Wireless connections are always dependent on surrounding conditions and hence a system should work independently. Teams who don’t want to rely on wireless communication, will find the log-and-replay feature of VNT helpful.” It is for that reason that other Kvaser CAN interfaces were also used for the demo.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Read about the demo at MathWorks Racing Lounge Blog here.
