The RS-232 to CAN Converter, AX030355, is a compact, rugged media converter designed with an IP67 rating for interfacing RS-232 devices with SAE J1939 CAN bus networks in on-road commercial vehicles or other machines. The RS-232 to CAN bidirectional converter features one RS-232 port and two fully isolated SAE J1939 CAN ports with auto-baud-rate detection.
The RS-232 serial port interface is provided with a user configurable frame forwarding system to convert serial port messages into CAN frames. The “frame format” is programmable, providing the controller the ability to parse the information at the RS-232 receiver. The two fully isolated CAN interfaces feature user configurable CAN-ID filtering and frame forward systems to convert CAN frames into serial port messages. By default, the primary CAN port supports SAE J1939 messaging, uses passive baud rate discovery to detect CAN network baud rate, and is capable of converting CAN ID and CAN data into ASCII format to produce readable text, for example, to a serial terminal application on a PC.
The AX030355 converter operates with a power input of 12 or 24 VDC nominal (9 to 36 VDC) and accepts two signal inputs to measure frequency/RPM, PWM, and digital signals. Measured input data can be sent to an SAE J1939 network or used to enable/disable frame forwarding. The media converter is user configurable via the Axiomatic Electronic Assistant, P/N: AX070506K.
