AnaGate CAN F4 - CAN/CAN FD Ethernet Bridge/Gateway

Product description

The AnaGate CAN F4 gateway connects a PC,  a embedded computer, a Simatic S7 or other device to up to four CAN busses via the TCP/IP network protocol (Ethernet). The AnaGate CAN basically works as a device with no own CAN identifier on the bus. The CAN identifier can be selected individually when sending telegrams.

The CAN messages are transparently embedded in TCP/IP telegrams to enable communication with any CAN device on the CAN network. This means that a CAN network can be addressed over the Internet or from multiple different PCs over a network. Higher protocol layers e.g. CANOpen®, Devicenet or J1939 can be used by the controller system too. WLAN communication is possible too via appropriate devices (access points).

The CAN interfaces of the AnaGate CAN F4 can be operated in four different modes:

  • In the gateway mode the CAN messages are transferred transparently over TCP/IP between the CAN network and the controller platform (e.g. PC) in both directions.
  • In the listen mode CAN messages can be recorded without influencing the CAN bus.
  • In the internal  bridge mode each interface can be directly interconnected to an arbitrary CAN networks via one of the other internal interfaces. 
  • In the LAN bridge mode each interface can be separately interconnected to an arbitrary CAN network via an additional AnaGate CAN model like the AnaGate CAN F2/F4/F8. CAN messages are exchanged transparently over TCP/IP between the two AnaGate devices. 

As Embedded PC with Linux platform the AnaGate CAN F4 permits also the flexible extensions by downloading and running of application programs. The existing two USB interfaces and the igital inputs/outputs can be accessed too.

The AnaGate F series is the latest CAN/CAN FD platform of Analytica, working with a Dual ARM Cortex A9 (1GHz) prozessor with 512MB RAM and 4GB eMMC Flash.
