VBOX Motorsports RLVBCGW01 CAN Gateway Module for VBOX Data Loggers

The VBOX Motorsports RLVBCGW01 CAN Gateway is a dedicated interface module designed to control the flow of CAN data between two separate buses in a VBOX data logging system. It enables simultaneous logging of vehicle CAN bus and CAN FD data alongside connected Racelogic accessory modules, without allowing module traffic to contaminate the vehicle's CAN bus.

Without a CAN Gateway, connecting secondary modules such as input modules or display units to a VBOX system while also capturing vehicle CAN data would result in VBOX module data being injected back onto the vehicle CAN bus — causing unpredictable and undesirable results. The RLVBCGW01 eliminates this problem by cleanly isolating the two data streams and forwarding each to the appropriate destination.

Key Features:

• Isolates vehicle CAN bus from VBOX module traffic for clean, accurate data logging
• Supports CAN and CAN FD formats with auto-detection of vehicle/sensor CAN bus baud rate
• Compatible CAN rates: 125 Kbit, 250 Kbit, 500 Kbit, and 1 Mbit
• Supports up to 4 MB data rates for CAN FD
• Converts and re-transmits up to 32 CAN or CAN FD messages
• Allows simultaneous use of VBOX input modules (e.g., RLVBMIM01 Mini Input Module, RLVBMICIN01 Micro Input Module) and OLED display
• Compatible with VBOX 3i (RLCAB006 cable included), VBOX Video HD2, VBOX 4, and VBOX 3iS
• Supports connection of the RLVBDSP03-24 Multi-Function Display and OLED Predictive Laptiming Display
• USB configuration via included RLCAB117 cable — appears as a USB drive for easy setup file loading
• Programmable via dedicated PC setup software to read and re-transmit nearly any CAN or CAN FD format message

The RLVBCGW01 CAN Gateway also provides standalone CAN bus utility functions including bus isolation, message filtering, baud rate conversion, and CAN FD-to-CAN message conversion — making it a versatile tool for motorsport data acquisition professionals and engineers.
