Description
Influx K-AN8 Analog Module
The Influx K-AN8 Module offers combined Voltages, Current and PWM Signals Accurate analogue and digital sensor measurement data for CAN applications.
A stackable, easy to use and cost-effective solution to measuring Analog and digital/P.W.M. sensors together in one module.
The K-AN8 includes Influx’s unique power down and WakeOnCAN feature for quick installation on long term unattended fleet test vehicles.
Accurate sensor measurement data is transmitted periodically on the CAN Bus enabling multiple K-Series modules to be connected together.
The K-AN8 CAN Bus settings, calibration, and sampling rates are all configurable and stored even when not powered.
Key Features
- 8 analog inputs with variable input sampling rates
- 8 channels at 1k Hz, 4 channels at 2kHz, 2 channels at 10k Hz and 5kHz
- PWM: 3 inputs frequency measurements, counters or pulse measurements
- Outputs: 4 Relay outputs. (Optional)
- Regulated +5V and +24V output power supply for external sensors
- Supplied with configuration software, Influx K-Cal for Windows® and configurable via a DBC file
- Instrumentation data time synchronized with recorded vehicle network data via CAN
- Galvanic isolation between modules (enclosure, power, CAN BUS and analogue input module)
- Analog channel over-voltage protection +150 Volt
- Stackable ABS enclosure
Advantages
- Combined Voltage, P.W.M./Digital measurements
- Software switchable voltage input ranges from ±80V to ±10V
- Very high accuracy- Analogue ±0.0015%
- High input impedance on Analogue inputs
- WakeOnCAN and power down deep sleep mode
K-AN8 Kit
The K-AN8 (8 analog + 4 digital input) kit contains everything needed to get the K-AN8 set up and tested on a workbench. To help with connecting sensors to the analogue and digital ports. The K-BoB enables easy connection with BNC connectors. Influx K-Cal is easily connected via the Kvaser Leaflight interface and Kvaser T-CANnector. {Using the Kvaser T-CANnector to power up the K-AN8 (at the desk) and terminate the CAN bus.
This kit is supplied in the Influx carry case and is highly recommended for new K-AN8 users – very easy to set up and test on a workbench, for example, when calibrating.
Influx’s K-AN8 Kit is a cost-effective solution to measure multiple sensor types within one module. Extremely easy to use and ideal for applications that will measure inputs such as pressures, voltages, currents (using a current clamp), PWM, RPM, digital counters, or IEPE sensors. Multiple K-Series modules can be stacked, connected, and configured to work together. All K-Series instrumentation modules allow the measurement of signals and the periodic transmission of sensor measurement data on a CAN 2.0 network.
Typical Applications
- Vehicle testing with additional instrumentation requiring a wide range of sensors, for example, voltage, pressure, fuel flow, RPM, event counters, acceleration, etc.
- Competitor bench testing (reverse engineering). Instrumentation combined with vehicle CAN data (collected via our Rebel/ReXgen data loggers)
- Vehicle engineering component testing (using K-series add-on modules for IEPE and PT100/PT1000 sensors)
Software
K-CAL
K-CAL is a freely distributable Windows PC application that accompanies all the K-Series products from Influx. K-Cal software is specifically designed to ensure you harness the full potential of all the K-series devices with precision and convenience.
Effortlessly configure your connected K-Series device using our user-friendly application K-CAL, or explore data analysis with the dynamic live view function.
Influx K-Cal offers powerful features that enable you to set byte orders, adjust unit measurements, set baud rates, and optimise power consumption through configurable sleep modes.
K-CAL lets you do everything from the unified export of DBC files for post-processing to real-time data visualisation on the oscilloscope to saving and exporting that data from the oscilloscope.
