Getting Started

While this section on the main page is just an overview, an in-depth software and hardware installation guide is available on out Getting Started page.

CAN Interface

To use your new Allegro Hand with Allegro Application Studio (AAS), a controller area network (CAN) interface must be used. Out of the box, the Allegro Hand and AAS communicate via any of four CAN interface products:

  • National Instruments' (NI) USB-8473s High-Speed CAN
  • Softing's CAN-AC2-PCI
  • Kvaser's PCIcan 4xHS
  • ESD's CAN-PCI/266


All four of these CAN interface solutions can be purchased from SimLab along with the Allegro Hand.
Driver information and downloads can be found on our Getting Started page.

Note: Other CAN interfaces may also be used but communication must be configured by the user.
