ICP DAS Data Acquisition

CAN(Controller Area Network) is a serial communication protocol with a very high level of security. It is an especially suit to distributed real-time system control and monitor, such as industrial machine control, aircraft engines, factory automation, medical equipment, building automation, remote data acquisition and control, environment monitor, etc. ICP DAS provides CAN library of PISO-CAN200/400 for NI LabVIEW 7.1. This library can help users to establish the connection with CAN network system easily and reduce the development time. The general application architecture is depicted as the following figure:
