The IFM CR3130 is a CANwireless communication module with an integrated antenna for wireless CAN connectivity. It provides CAN-to-Wi-Fi and CAN-to-Bluetooth communication for mobile machines. The device supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth Classic 2.1 + EDR. It can operate as a wireless bridge, infrastructure interface or mini access point. The module is also suitable for wireless machine diagnostics and debugging.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The CR3130 enables CAN bus data to be transmitted wirelessly through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. This removes the need for a physical cable between the machine CAN network and a service computer or another CANwireless device. CAN data can be exchanged between connected wireless network participants. The device supports CANopen, CAN Layer 2 and J1939 protocols. A receive buffer of 2048 CAN messages supports reliable data handling.
The module supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi communication. It can operate in infrastructure mode or mini access point mode depending on the network architecture. Bluetooth Classic 2.1 + EDR provides another wireless communication option through the Serial Port Profile. The integrated antenna provides a wireless range of up to 75 m under specified conditions. This provides flexible wireless access to mobile-machine CAN systems.
The CR3130 can be used as an interface for wireless diagnosis and debugging. CODESYS and maintenance tools can communicate with the machine through the wireless connection. It can also operate as a CAN-to-CAN bridge between CANwireless devices. Filtering of CAN data can reduce unnecessary wireless traffic. This makes the module useful for commissioning, troubleshooting and maintenance activities.
