E-PLUS® Technology
Features
E-PLUS® is a programmable Human Machine Interface (pHMI) for NMEA 2000® and CAN based systems, that combines the tactile simplicity of an electromechanical switch with flexible, software-defined control. The compatible anti-vandal pushbutton switch supports integrated RGB LED and a controller module. It sits on a CAN Bus and combines switch input, LED indication, NMEA 2000® communication, and configurable device behavior in one network-connected platform.
E-PLUS® allows installers, integrators, and advanced users to customize button logic, LED patterns, timing behavior, inter-device commands, and PGN message handling without reflashing the firmware. Configuration and programming are performed through the E-PLUS® Programmer PC Application using a Kvaser USB-to-CAN interface.
- Reliable response to essential NMEA 2000® Parameter Group Number (PGNs address claim, product info, configuration, etc.).
- A lightweight kernel with an associated event-driven scripting language that allows the user to customize behavior (button logic, LED patterns, timing, inter-device commands, etc.) without needing to re-flash the firmware.
- Simple configuration via the E-PLUS® Programmer PC application, connecting through a Kvaser USB-to-CAN interface.
