Allegro Application Studio Installation

CAN Interface Installation

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 CAN-AC2-PCI
  • Kvaser PCIcan 4xHS
  • ESD CAN-PCI/266

All four of these CAN interface solutions can be purchased from SimLab along with the Allegro Hand.
Product and driver information for each of these four interfaces can be found below. Note: Other CAN interfaces may also be used but communication must be configured by the user.
