A two channel signal converter with isolation and CAN bus is designed for diesel engine control systems, industrial automation, vehicle automation, and machine control integration. The signal converter accepts two analog current or voltage signals, resistive or digital inputs, PWM or frequency/RPM inputs and converts them into 2 analog, PWM, frequency or digital signal outputs. A +5V reference powers sensor inputs. The unit has 4-way isolation between power, inputs, outputs and CAN. The I/O control includes CAN bus automation for SAE J1939 12Vdc or 24Vdc control systems or CANopen networks. It can be installed in control panels, industrial control automation systems, power generator set control systems, off-highway equipment, construction machines, and test equipment.

The isolated dual channel universal signal converter accepts two voltage, current, resistive, frequency, RPM, PWM or digital control signal inputs and converts them into two signal outputs (analog voltage, analog current or digital signal). The control can be networked to a CANopen® networked engine control system. The unit has 4-way isolation between power, inputs, outputs and CAN. Using the Electronic Assistant programming tool, the user can select the desired inputs from the following signal options listed in the table below. A +5V, 50 mA reference is available to power a sensor input. Ways that outputs can be programmed are also listed in the table. A rugged power supply interface accepts 12 Vdc or 24 Vdc nominal for battery powered machine applications. The unit carries an IP67 rating. The rugged enclosure with 12 pin TE Deutsch connector is suitable for harsh environments. It operates from -40 to 85°C (-40 to 185°F). The sophisticated control algorithms allow the user to program the controller for a wide range of applications without the need for customer software.
