Since the internal communication in these vehicles is based on the CAN standard, manufacturers need to offer their customers a practical interface between electronic components and PC-based CAN diagnostic software.
The solution:
One CAN diagnostic kit for all cases
A leading manufacturer of leisure vehicles overcame this challenge by developing a complete CAN diagnostic kit for both its company-owned repair shops and many partner shops worldwide. The kit consists of a DIUS MPI compact adapter as the hardware interface, compatible cables, and CAN diagnostic software.
The DIUS MPI adapter was specially modified toand was equipped with firmware that is only compatible with the company’s diagnostic software BUDS/BUDS2/ . It enables seamless communication between the manufacturer’s CAN diagnostic software and the CAN bus systems in the vehicles. It establishes a direct connection to key vehicle components through a special interface.
DIUS MPI compact: the rugged plug-and-play champion
The ADAPTER DIUS MPI-3 adapters are probably the simplest and most reliable way to connect CAN networks with PC systems.
As a customized version of the “compact” version, the CAN converter has a 9-pin D-sub connector and a 32-bit microcontroller with sufficient performance for the CAN high-speed channel (CAN 2.0 A/B).
The technical features of the adapter’s compact desktop version (80 × 50 × 22 mm) include a high transfer rate (CAN baud rates from 10 to 1000 kbit/s) and a rugged design using durable ABS plastic, making it ideal for use in dusty, dirty workshop environments.
The USB 2.0 cable integrated in the housing provides further sturdiness for workshop settings.
The customer was not only pleased by the hardware, but the extensive range of software was also convincing. Available APIs for C, C++, .NET and Java make it easy to connect the adapters with existing software environments. Additional support comes from multisystem compatibility with Windows, Linux, or real-time OS thanks to multicompatible VCI, ECI, and Socket CAN driver packages.
