FlexRay
The BLUEPIRAT Rapid is able to record FlexRay bus data according to the FlexRay specifica-
tion 2.1A. The data logger records all valid and invalid, static and dynamic frames of the
FlexRay channel
, including “a” and “b”, independently if the FlexRay bus is in a synchronous or
asynchronous state.

Attention:
For every measurement with FlexRay the line must be separated and lead through the
BLUEPIRAT Rapid. Therefore all connectors exist two times at the cable set.
Turning off the BLUEPIRAT Rapid thereby causes no interruption of the FlexRay line.
11.6
Analog / Digital Input
The BLUEPIRAT Rapid has 7 analog and 4 digital inputs, whereas the first analog channel is
located in the logger and records the input voltage. The measuring range at analog 2
– 7 is be-
tween -60 V and + 60 V, the accuracy is 0,05 %. The sampling rate is adjustable from 1 Hz to 4
kHz. The switching threshold for the digital input is 7 V ± 0.2 V.
The combined ground has to be connected always!
11.7
Digital Output
The BLUEPIRAT Rapid has 4 digital outputs. The output current is up to 1 A per channel.
The channels DigitalOut #1 to #3 provide an output voltage equal to the supply voltage of the
Rapid, DigitalOut #4 provides an output voltage of 5 V
11.8
Ethernet
The BLUEPIRAT Rapid 100+ has four 1000Base-T Ethernet ports with RJ45 connector on the
front and twenty 100Base-T1 interfaces at the rear side.
The two interfaces
ETH #1 / TSL
and
ETH #2 / TSL
can be used to connect the data logger to
the PC and for the TSL (System Link Technology) connection.
Broad-R-Reach
® /
Automotive Ethernet / 100Base-T1
is an Ethernet based standard, which
allows multiple components of the electrical system of a vehicle to get access to information by
using unshielded twisted pair wires simultaneously.
