> 4,000 fpsTransmit throughput
Programmable termination
Enable or disable 120 Ω termination in software without rewiring the bench.
One software ecosystem
Use the same device with BUSMASTER, BMCLI automation, or the BMAPI SDK.
Dual host interfaces
USB Type-C and the standard Raspberry Pi 40-pin header support both USB operation and deep Raspberry Pi integration.
High-density edge connectivity
Eight CAN FD channels, two RS232 ports, and 2,500 V isolation fit compact gateways, acquisition nodes, and custom applications.

THREE-LAYER SOFTWARE ECOSYSTEM
Visual analysis, AI automation, and a standard API share the same hardware capabilities.
Use BUSMASTER for visual analysis, connect AI and automation through BMCLI, or build your own applications with the BMAPI SDK. Tutorials, commands, and API references are available online.
