3.1.1 Real-time mode
In real-time mode, CAN messages are
transmitted bidirectionally.
With the device, you can use CAN interfaces to transmit
process data such as machine parameters during ongoing
operations to the Data platform. Depending on the device
features, you can transmit data from the GNSS receiver and
the input/output functions and pass them on via the CAN
bus.
Data is transmitted constantly and can be evaluated in
close to real-time. This function requires a permanent link
between the device and the user software or the Data
platform.
3.1.2 Logging mode
In logging mode, the device logs CAN messages, GNSS
data, and internal variables such as the values of the
acceleration or gyro sensors. All logged data is saved to an
internal, nonvolatile memory and sent to the Data platform.
With the device, you can log process data such as machine
parameters during ongoing operation via CAN interfaces.
Depending on the device features, you can process data
from the GNSS receiver and the input/output functions and
send and log them via the CAN bus.
3.1.3 Input/output functions (I/O)
The device features additional input/output functions (3
analog inputs, 1 digital output). You can use the input
function for instance to log status information from devices
or machines as well as to directly determine and monitor
