The CANedge3 can be connected to a 3G / 4G USB router to upload data to your local or cloud server. The hotspot can be optionally powered by the device for in-vehicle or on-site deployment.
The CANcloud Status Dashboard helps you monitor device data uploads and device operating status.
Use Cases
Reinventing Remote Information Processing
Today, remote fleet information processing is critical to vehicles and equipment. However, end-users still face a number of challenges: high subscription costs, lack of data ownership, security concerns and vendor lock-in.
CANedge3 provides a modernized alternative:
Upload data to your own local/dedicated/cloud servers
Adding WiFi access points and server details to the configuration
Record data to SD card and upload automatically when connected to WiFi.
Supports file split setting to control upload frequency
100% Security: HTTPS, certificate encryption, etc.
Supports wireless update management (firmware and configuration)
Power supply to a 3G/4G access point or GPS module through the second port
Zero cost, zero lock-in, interoperable open source tools
Easily manage data and devices on the server.
CANedge3 uploads data to the S3 server and makes it easy to manage server files with any S3-compatible tool or SDK. In addition, the 100%'s optional CANcloud tool lets you manage devices and data on the S3 server through a browser:
