Description
The Baby-LIN-3-RCplus is a compact LIN and CAN simulator that is perfectly suited for use in stand-alone operation thanks to its 9 freely configurable buttons, 1.54" display and expandable microSD card. Two PWM-capable inputs/outputs enable extensive sequence options, which can be defined with our LINWorks software package. Signals can be displayed and sequences selected on the configurable GUI.
