Introduction<br />
The <strong>I+ME</strong> CAT (CAN Analyzer Tool)<br />
CAT is an improved portable CAN Analyzer Tool. It is designed to connect a PC with RS232 interface<br />
to CAN (Controller Area Network). With its features it is an ideal general-purpose hardware for<br />
automotive analyzes and diagnostics on the single wire CAN, the mid speed CAN and the high speed<br />
CAN.<br />
<strong>I+ME</strong> designed CAT specially to use together with Laptops for testing a vehicle. Therefore the user can<br />
configure the layout of the windows application to his or her specific needs. E.g. it is possible to enlarge<br />
the used fonts of received signals or frames.<br />
With CAT the user can visualize and influence bus traffic within a CAN network. CAT supports even<br />
some Diagnostic Services in accordance to ISO 15765.<br />
CAT allows to transmit messages to the CAN bus, the user may set filter conditions to focus on special<br />
CAN ID or on special CAN messages. Trigger functionality supports in analyzing the bus traffic.<br />
The logged data can be exported into text files that are readable by standard PC applications, e.g. Excel.<br />
In this way the user can generate statistic diagrams etc. to analyze the acquired data.<br />
Discover CAT by browsing through this Help document or just use it in real at a CAN system. As long<br />
as the user is not familiar to the CAN bus and the usage of CAT there must be precautionary measures<br />
