Learn how Transight's partnership with the EV industry leader changed the game in EV data management, benefiting the entire sector and driving innovation.
The Challenge
Manufacturers of Electric vehicles and batteries often employ custom or proprietary CAN messages to gather data that is specific to their devices. This data may not adhere to standardized formats and include unique parameters and identifiers. Additionally, there’s no universally accepted standard CAN protocol format for both Electric vehicles and Battery Management System (BMS).
Hence specific knowledge of the vehicle’s make and model or collaboration with manufacturers or BMS suppliers is required to access the information. The unavailability of CAN data in Electric Vehicle industry is challenging for researchers, manufacturers, and service providers, hindering the understanding and optimization of EVs.
The Solution
After identifying the critical needs of one of the leading players in the electric vehicle
industry, Transight Systems developed a customized solution specifically for them.
This solution included:
1. Customized Telematics Devices
– We specialize in crafting telematics devices that can communicate with various EVs, regardless of their unique data formats.
– Developing these devices requires expertise in embedded systems, CAN communication, and a deep understanding of the industries we serve.
– Rigorous testing and validation ensure the reliability and compatibility of our devices with different vehicles and network configurations.
2. Utilizing Configurable CAN
– We offer a valuable solution in the form of a configurable CAN controller or gateway, allowing the management of multiple Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols using a single device.
– This solution proves highly beneficial in industries like automotive, industrial automation, and IoT applications. It facilitates uninterrupted integration and communicatio among diverse CAN networks, even when they operate with varying protocols, baud rates, and message
Configurable CAN
– Users can configure the CAN channel, Mode (standard, Extended, & mixed), Baud rate and various parameters at runtime.
– Users can configure CAN messages using filters regardless of protocols such as OBD, J1939, or UDS.
– Users can configure up to 32 CAN IDs for transmission and 30 CAN IDs for reception.
– Easily customizable to meet their specific requirements.
– Users can adjust the cycle time for messages and also configure messages in fixed periodic and one-time. This applies to both transmit and receive messages.
– Users have the capability to edit and modify their previous configurations at runtime.
