Optimize the digitization of your fleet with automatic start-up detection via CAN BUS
At B’Smart we continue to innovate to make fleet digitalization more efficient. Our latest functionality allows to automatically detect the start of the machines through CAN BUS, eliminating the need to connect digital inputs, significantly simplifying the implementation process of our system.
How does it work?
Traditionally, the installation of monitoring devices on machinery required the use of a digital input from the device used to detect the switching on and off of machines. However, with our new functionality, the system is able to identify these events directly from the CAN BUS data bus, providing accurate and real-time information.
In many cases, this allows the device to be installed directly on the factory CAN BUS connector, reducing installation time to as little as 10 minutes. In addition, by recording machine start-up and shut-down, it is possible to automatically count machine hours, facilitating the control of equipment use and preventive maintenance.
Benefits of automatic start detection
- Faster and easier installation: Deployment times are reduced by eliminating the need for additional cabling.
- Increased accuracy: Direct detection from the CAN BUS ensures a more reliable reading of the machine status.
- Lower costs and maintenance: Hardware costs and potential failures associated with physical installation are reduced.
- Real-time monitoring: Data is automatically updated on our platform, allowing for better operational management and faster response to any incident.
- Compatibility with all types of machinery: The possibility of using the factory CAN BUS connector facilitates implementation in a wide variety of equipment, regardless of make, model and year of manufacture.
Transforming Fleet Digitization into machinery
With this new functionality, B’Smart reaffirms our commitment to innovation and efficiency. Our goal is to continue facilitating the digitization of machinery fleets, allowing our customers to optimize maintenance, reduce downtime and improve the productivity of their operations.
