Description
Technoton Crocodile Contactless CAN j1939 Reader
Technoton Crocodile Contactless CAN j1939 Reader is designed for safe data reading from the vehicle CAN bus. The contactless reader is used within vehicle telematics and GPS tracking systems for receiving various parameters of vehicle operation from CANbus: speed, RPM, oil pressure & temperature, fuel volume & consumption, etc.
Data reading occurs without an electrical connection and without damaging CAN wires. CANCrocodile works in “listen” mode only, i.e. it does not change original J1939 messages and does not send any signals to CANbus.
Advantages of CANCrocodile
- Safe connection to the CAN bus
CANCrocodile does no damage to the insulation of wires and has no direct electrical contact with CANbus. Data reading occurs in a contactless way – CANCrocodile detects magnetic fields around CAN-High and CAN-Low wires. - Strong fixation of CAN bus wires
The design of the body provides perpendicular fixing of the wires to the reading surface. This way of fixing will not allow the CAN bus wires to slip from the CANCrocodile reading surface. A soft pressure pad in the upper part of the housing tightly presses the wires to the reading surface. - LED indication of operation modes
Red indicator – power is on, blinking green indicator – messages receipt from the CAN bus. Indicators allow to test of the operability of the reader without dismantling and connecting to the monitoring terminal.
