Custom CAN Solutions
Have you been trying to find a certain signal in your car or other vehicle? Do you need to install some gear but can't find the correct wires to connect to? Are you spending a long time searching and wiring up vehicles? This is very likely due to the growing use of a system in cars called CANBUS or CAN.
Simply it is a way of different parts of the vehicle talking to others without the use of dozens of wires - everything is now sent in a computerised format along two wires. The trouble is when you need to find a certain signal, since it is now computerised, you can't find it!
Take for example the simple speed signal, it used to be a pulse coming from the wheels or car computer to the speedo. Now it is a digital computer signal that cannot be used - until now with our special interfaces! We can give you the pulse back...
Customised CANBUS Interfaces - Are you trying to put a logging system, tracking, taxi meter or radio into a car? Perhaps you work for mining companies and need to add safety features to a vehicle? Councils may use these too to look for speed signals perhaps to determine how far out of town a pothole is. These are just some examples of the applications. Virtually any device that needs signals form a vehicle can be adapted.
These interfaces effectively allow you to create a bridge between the vehicle network and your product, application or on-board equipment allowing you to seamlessly match the input specifications required by your product. Its a great solution if you want you product to be applicable to a range of trucks or cars.
If you can't find the interface you want for a vehicle you want there is every chance we can source it for you. Our CAN interfaces from Beijer can be made to order or we also have various types off-the-shelf. For example we can now get CANBUS interfaces customised for the Ford Ranger 2012 model. Ideal for those working on IVMS (In Vehicle Motoring Systems).
Please contact us and let us know which signals you need, we can usually check on the spot what can be done. For some signals we can offer positive or negative outputs. If you are an installer of electronic devices in cars then our data interfaces can save you hours of time, making your work fast and cost effective. This is ideal for fleet management installers too!
