Grid Connect and PEAK-System’s webinar introduces software for analyzing CAN buses

Automotive innovations—energized by CAN and CAN FD buses—have brought to life remarkable designs, UX, safety features, and infotainment. For design and test lab managers who want to go beyond simply monitoring CAN networks, Grid Connect and PEAK-System have introduced the PCAN Explorer 6 software to enable communication simultaneously between CAN and CAN FD buses. Users can send messages or transmission lists with the software, which benefits control and simulation.

To quickly get users started with PCAN Explorer 6 as well as the applications it facilitates, PEAK-System CEO Uwe Wilhelm and Grid Connect, Inc. Vice President Rick Rockershousen will host a webinar on Friday, Oct. 28, 2022, at 10:30 a.m. CT. Manufacturers use the CAN and CAN FD bus standards in almost all vehicles and many industrial machines to reduce weight and wiring as well as enable diagnostics and data logging.

“PCAN Explorer 6 is a valuable tool for testing the implementation or development of CAN systems,” says Rockershousen. “Our webinar will show users not only the fastest way to get the most value from the software but also a number of tips for automating tasks and processes.”

The free webinar is ideal for those who want to:

Get started with the basics of PCAN Explorer 6,
