Data volumes of examined CAN buses significantly influence the CPU load of the loggers used. According to Harry Stoerzer, Head of Application & Support at IPETRONIK, the data logger Upgrade Package optimises data processing and significantly reduces the basic load of the CPU unit.
The Upgrade Package can be obtained through calibration/maintenance and features the following components and services: Upgrade Kit (Hardware check with FPGA update for accelerated CAN signal processing); Exchange of internal storage medium with 8 GB high-speed CompactFlash card; and System calibration with functionality test and calibration protocol.
The Upgrade Package can be applied to M-LOG data loggers with active CAN cards and LX800 processor boards or to S-LOG data loggers with active CAN cards and LX800 processor boards. The Upgrade Package is not applicable for older M-LOG logger types (SC 1200 processor) and/or passive CAN cards.
