CANverter I/O Module
The CANverter is a compact, cost-effective I/O module for any high-speed physical layer CAN Network. The I/O module can either send a signal on a CAN bus or send CAN data to an external acquisition system. Its light-weight and compact size makes it portable and simple to install just about anywhere.
- Four customizable I/O channels: 0-5V 10-bit analog input, 0-5V 12-bit analog output
- Converts CAN bus data to analog voltages or digital signals
- Converts analog or digital inputs to CAN data
- Supports PWM outputs
- Easy setup via the CANverter Configuration Software (using a .DBC or .UEF database)
- CANverter draws about 50mA when powered at 12V. CANverter will never pull more than 100mA during operation.

CAN to I/O Latency | The CANverter runs a 1ms loop. There should not be more than 1ms of latency between the receipt of a CAN Message and the Analog output updating. The CANverter can send out up to 3 CAN massages in 1ms intervals. When you get to 4 messages it drops 2ms intervals. |
