C24.N12

C24.N12 is a compact 12-channel input converter that brings field sensors onto the CAN network. It converts analog and digital inputs into CANopen or SAE J1939 messages for communication with master ECUs and HMIs. It reduces wiring complexity and is designed for remote aggregation of field signals such as limit switches and pressure sensors.

Key Specifications

  • 12 input channels, CANbus output
  • Analog and digital input types supported
  • CANopen and SAE J1939 communication
  • Distributed input module in multiplex systems
  • Compact C24 form factor
  • Sensor signal transmission over CAN
  • Compatible with Avioni ECU and HMI ecosystem
  • Configuration and calibration via Javelin Suite
  • CE and EMC compliant

Technical Details

C24.N12 is an input converter module in the Avioni C24 product family. Unlike the C24.XOUT programmable ECU, it does not drive outputs; its role is to read field sensors and transmit that data to the master control unit over CAN. Mounted close to sensors on the machine, it avoids long analog cable runs.

Input Capabilities

C24.N12 can be configured with input types supported by the Avioni ECU platform. In addition to high/low-side digital inputs, sensor interfaces such as 0–5 V and 0–30 V analog voltage, 0–20 mA current, frequency/RPM, resistance and duty cycle measurement can be used according to project needs. Field elements such as limit switches, pressure transducers and temperature sensors are collected over 12 channels.

CANbus Communication

Read input values are published as CAN messages over CANopen or SAE J1939 protocols. Master ECUs such as C24.XOUT, C48, C72 and C121 and AVD HMI displays access this data on the same network. Operating as a slave/module, it bridges in-cab ECUs and field sensors in multiplex architectures.

System Integration

C24.N12 is the distributed input layer of the Avioni control ecosystem. Multiple C24.N12 modules on one machine can scale input capacity. C24.N16 (16 inputs to CAN) is an alternative where more channels are needed. Applications requiring output driving use C24.XOUT or higher-class ECUs.

Javelin Suite Integration

C24.N12 is configured and commissioned with Avioni Javelin Suite:

• Input type assignment and channel mapping
• Scaling, calibration and filter parameters
• CAN message ID and period settings
• Live input value monitoring and debugging
• Firmware update and field configuration

UCAN-USB or UCAN-BT adapters provide workshop and field access.

Position in the C24 Family

C24.XOUT (8+8) is the compact programmable ECU. C24.N12 (12 inputs to CAN) is an input-only converter. C24.N16 (16 inputs to CAN) offers higher channel count. C24.BBX and C24.AERO are recording-focused modules. C24.N12 is an ideal complement for sensor-dense projects, those without output requirements, or distributed input architectures.

Typical Applications

• Limit switch aggregation on boom and chassis
• Remote pressure and temperature sensor reading
• Distributed input node in multiplex systems
• Reducing analog cable length
• Sensor integration in prototype and series production
• Modular input expansion alongside a master ECU
