Description
The Baby-LIN-3-DUAL combines a LIN and a CAN bus interface for USB control in a compact device. Control is implemented using the API functions of the Baby-LIN-DLL, known from Generation 2. The system also supports stand-alone operation, allowing for tasks such as continuous run sequences to be executed without a PC. Additionally, galvanic isolation ensures interference-free data transmission.
The delivery of a Baby-LIN-3-Dual system includes the following components:
-
