Standalone Data Logger

Independent Data Logging Function available at MicroSD card The SENT and CAN(/FD) frames are logged and contain the Real Time Clock (RTC) timestampsTheThe captured data can be converted and analyzed on a computer, or Instant playback to SENT channelThis will allow for testing and validation.

SENT and Analog Conversion

The interface provides four analog channels, each of which can be configured as an input or output and can be mapped to any SENT channel in the device.

Conversion settings can be customized by the user and include:

  • Start Bit and Bit Length
  • Linear conversion function (multiplier, offset)
  • Min/Max Voltage Limit

Analog Input Range: 0-5 V
Analog output range: 0-4.095 V (12-bit analog converter DAC)

Interface and Gateway

Four SAE J2716 (SENT) channels can be accessed via Ethernet/USB/CAN(/FD). Users can receive and send fast and slow SENT messages, and the device can be configured to automatically forward incoming SENT frames to the CAN(/FD) bus for flexible data exchange and real-time communication.

Application Scenarios

The SAE J2716 interface can be used as a two-way gateway between SENT and Ethernet/USB/CAN(/FD), or as a standalone data logger in the SENT and CAN(/FD) communication data is recorded on the MicroSD card.The device is equipped with 4 analog channels that can be mapped to both incoming and outgoing SENT data.Realizes the two-way conversion function of SENT → analog output or analog input → SENT.The device can also serve as a USB-CAN(/FD) or Ethernet-CAN(/FD) interface for multi-protocol integration. While performing SENT gateway or converter tasks, the device can also serve as a USB-CAN(/FD) or Ethernet-CAN(/FD) interface for professional applications such as multi-protocol integration, data exchange and ECU testing.

The SAE J2716 interface provides four bi-directional SENT channels that support receiving and transmitting fast and slow message formats (both short and enhanced serial). Each SENT channel can be independently configured for communication direction, tick time, nibble count, and pause pulse. The device is also equipped with Intelligent Frame Filtering, which allows the device to be used as a stand-alone interface.Effectively prevents USB / CAN(/FD) / Ethernet communication overload.This ensures stable and efficient data transmission.

In addition, the interface supports a number of advanced SENT features: SPC mode (Short Pulse Width Coding), CRC error injection (for fast and slow messages), and support for up to eight Data Nibbles. Configurable CAN Identifier for both transmit and receive.Allows multiple SAE J2716 interfaces to operate simultaneously on the same CAN bus without conflict.The

Software

The device can be easily configured via the built-in Web Server or by using the free SENT J2716 Interface Tool PC application (Windows 64-bit, requires . NET Framework 4.8 for Windows 64-bit. In addition to basic configuration, the application provides more advanced data monitoring, logging and simulation capabilities.

Integration with .NET API

Designed for open communication protocols based on Ethernet, USB or CAN(/FD), the device is easy to integrate into third-party systems such as offline testers, test benches and hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) test systems.

The SAE J2716 interface .NET SDK (Product ID: MACH-SENT-ETH-NET-SDK), provided as a .NET DLL (NuGet kit), provides access to devices over Ethernet, USB (virtual serial port), or CAN/FD. The API provides a clean and efficient way for developers to control the SAE J2716 interface directly from Microsoft .

The protocol and SDK support the following features:
