Welcome to Kvaser Eagle

The Kvaser Eagle is a small, yet advanced, portable CAN data logger. The device can be
configured in many different ways to achieve the most suitable and effective logging for any
situation. Connecting the logger to a PC provides direct access for configuring bit rates,
trigger conditions, and filters using the Kvaser Memorator Tools. You can also use the Kvaser
t
language for even more advanced setups. A standard SD flash disk is included. These
memory cards are robust, inexpensive, and small
– about the size of a stamp.
Kvaser Eagle can also be used as a powerful two-channel real time CAN to USB interface.
3.1.1 Triggers
Log continuously or create triggers to control when frames are logged. You can create up to
32 trigger conditions. These conditions can include the reception of a specific message, the
value of a specific signal in a message, or an external trigger input configured to trigger on
either a rising or falling edge. Define a post-trigger time to control the amount of data logged
after the trigger expression becomes false. Define a pre-trigger time to log events leading up
to the trigger expression becoming true.
