UPO1000CS-AUTO Auto serial bus trigger and analysis (CAN, LIN)
Overview
The UPO1000CS-AUTO adds CAN and LIN automotive bus triggering, decoding, and search to your UPO1000CS Series oscilloscope in a single license — the two most common vehicle network protocols.
CAN handles powertrain, body control, and diagnostics (OBD-II). LIN handles comfort and convenience systems (windows, mirrors, seats, lighting). Together they cover the bus protocols found in the majority of automotive electronics projects.
Buying the bundle costs less than purchasing the included options separately, and it keeps the bench ready when a new requirement turns up mid-project. The option is enabled by a software license keyed to the oscilloscope's serial number and is permanent for the life of the instrument.
Key Features
- CAN Protocol Decode — Trigger on frame ID, data, error frames. Decoded frames overlay the analog waveform for signal-protocol correlation.
- LIN Protocol Decode — Trigger on frame IDs, data, checksum errors. Master-slave timing visible alongside electrical signals.
- Two Protocols, One License — CAN and LIN activated together at a bundled price.
- Deep Memory Search — Search captured records for specific messages or errors across the full acquisition.
- Lifetime License Activation — activate once, owned for the life of the instrument. No subscriptions, no renewals, no maintenance fees.
When You Need This Option
The option fits the following workflows:
- Vehicle Network Debug — Your project uses both CAN (ECU communication) and LIN (body electronics). One license covers both bus types.
- Automotive Training — Teaching automotive electronics? CAN and LIN are the two buses every automotive engineer encounters first.
Compatibility
This option is compatible with all UPO1000CS Series oscilloscopes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this include CAN-FD?
No. This bundle includes classic CAN and LIN only. CAN-FD is available on higher-tier oscilloscope series.
How is this option activated?
The option is enabled by a software license keyed to the oscilloscope's serial number. After purchase, the license is registered on the UNI-T website to generate the license file, which is then loaded onto the instrument from a USB drive through the option-install menu. Refer to the oscilloscope's user manual for the step-by-step procedure.
Is the license permanent, or does it require renewal?
The license is permanent — a one-time purchase that stays active for the life of the instrument. No subscriptions, no annual renewals, and no expiration.
