• Simultaneous operation of multiple devices.
• One SD card slot for logging.
• Logger status is indicated with externally visible LEDs.
2.3 Interface and logger
Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 provides a CAN bus interface through a standard USB
interface or logs data from a CAN bus to a standard SD card. The device is in
Interface mode when connected to the PC via USB, and in Logger mode when
only connected to CAN power.
Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can log continuously, or logging can be triggered by
external triggers (rising or falling edge) and/or by messages on the CAN bus
(triggered by identifier, data contents or error frames.) Pre- and post-trigger times
can be set.
To enhance logging performance, Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can filter out
messages to be logged. The identifiers can be picked from a database file, or all
messages can be logged.
2.3.1 Triggers
Triggers are useful if you want the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to start logging
when something special happens. An example of a trigger is a specific incoming
CAN message.
The triggers are combined using logical operators into expressions. More than one
trigger may be used in an expression.
An action is then associated with the expression, where the action describes what
should happen when the expression is true, e.g. start logging.
Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 supports two expressions and may associate one
single action to each expression.
2.4 Configuration software in the PC
To be able to configure Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2, you need to install Kvaser
Memorator Config Tool which can be downloaded at www.kvaser.com/download.
The Kvaser Memorator Config Tool will assist in:

3 Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 hardware
In this section you can read more about the CAN channels, power supply and LED
indicators.
3.1 Hardware installation
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 may be inserted in any free USB socket on the
host computer. You do not need to switch the power off before inserting or
removing the device.
For the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to communicate with the host computer, the
correct version of the Kvaser driver and firmware must be installed. The firmware is
downloaded and installed directly on the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 and the driver
is installed on the host computer. The latest version of the driver and firmware can
be downloaded from www.kvaser.com/download.
The driver is installed by running the file
kvaser_drivers_setup.exe
.
For information on how to upgrade the firmware, see Section 4.8, Updating the
firmware, on Page 21.
3.2 USB connector
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 has a standard USB type “Micro-B” female
connector.
Figure 2: Micro USB cable connected to the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2.
Connect the device to your computer using any high quality USB 2.0 certified
cable. The maximum USB cable length is 5 m (∼ 16 ft). If you need a longer cable,
you can use USB hubs or USB extension cables with a built-in hub. By chaining up
to 5 hubs, you can achieve an effective cable length of up to 25 m (∼ 82 ft).
Kvaser AB, Mölndal, Sweden — www.kvaser.com
Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 User’s Guide 10 (26)
As USB cables become longer they are more sensitive to EMI,
because they make a longer antenna that can pick up more
noise. These issues can be mitigated by using higher quality
cables with better shielding. Thicker cables tend to be better than
thin ones, and braided shielding tends to be more reliable than
only foil. Furthermore, longer cables may introduce signal
degradation and timing issues that, if necessary, can be mitigated
using shorter cable segments combined with hubs that amplify
the signal and handle delays on a per-cable basis.
3.3 CAN channels
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 has two CAN Hi-Speed channels with separate
9-pin D-SUB CAN connectors (see Figure 3). See Section 4.3, CAN connectors,
on Page 17 for pinout information.
Figure 3: CAN connector on Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2
3.4 Power supply
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can be powered through the CAN 1 connector
and through the USB connector.
To operate the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 in logger mode, you must supply
power through the CAN 1 connector. To use the device as a USB CAN interface or
to configure the device, power on the USB side is sufficient.
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 contains a battery that needs to be fully charged
before using the device for the first time. Connect the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2
to either a powered USB port or supply power through the CAN connector and let
the battery charge overnight.
Kvaser AB, Mölndal, Sweden — www.kvaser.com
Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 User’s Guide 11 (26)
The battery inside the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 is used for powering the real
time clock and ensuring a safe shutdown of the device when disconnected. When
in logger mode, the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can also use the battery to extend
the logging time by a number of seconds (accessible from the Power Settings in
Kvaser Memorator Config Tool).
To maintain a healthy battery you need to:
• Always connect the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to a properly powered USB
hub when connected to a computer.
• When using the feature to extend time to live after CAN power is
disconnected, always make sure to recharge the device between each use.
To fully recharge the device, connect to power for up to 20x “live time” (e.g.
15s battery use might require up to 5 min of recharging).
• If the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 is not used regularly, ensure the device is
recharged at least twice a year overnight at room temperature.
All charging times are given at temperatures between −10◦C to
+40◦C. In warmer and colder temperatures the charging time will
increase.
See Section 4.3, CAN connectors, on Page 17 for information on how to connect
power to the connector. The supply power should be in the range specified in
Section 4.2, Technical data, on Page 17.
3.5 SD Card
You can use SD, and SDHC cards with your Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 for
logging. The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 is built with industrial environments in
mind, but please note that the SD card used can be a limiting factor. By using a
quality card that matches the specifications of the Kvaser unit, you minimize the
risk for data corruption or lost data.
Insert the SD card upside down into your Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 (see Figure 4
on Page 12). Do not apply excessive force.
To remove the SD card, open the access door and using a finger or a small coin,
gently press on the edge of the SD card until a click is heard. Release the card and
it will partially eject. Remove the SD card completely.
The setting of the write protection switch on SD cards is
disregarded by design. The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 will write
to the disk even if the write protection switch is set.

4 Appendices
In this section you will find technical information about the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS
v2 and its connectors.
4.1 Definitions of LED states and colors
A Kvaser device has two basic types of LEDs; Power and Traffic. These are dual
colored as shown in Table 2. A device with multiple CAN channels has one Traffic
LED for each CAN channel. When the device has more than one channel a space
and digit is added on the label, CAN 1, CAN 2 etc. The red Traffic LEDs are also
used to indicate errors by using all red Traffic LEDs simultaneously.
LED Label Color
Power PWR Green/Yellow
Traffic CAN Yellow/Red
Table 2: The different type of LEDs.
The following definitions is used to describe the state of an LED:
Off The LED is off and no light is emitted.
Flash The LED is lit up for a very short time. A single flash may be hard to see
and a continuous set of flashes will look the same as On.
Slow Blink The LED is repeatedly turned On and Off. The On and Off phase is
equal in time.
Fast Blink The LED is repeatedly turned On and Off but with a higher frequency
than Slow Blink. The On and Off time is still equal.
On The LED is constantly emitting light.
Slow Waver This is a variant of Slow Blink but instead of being Off, a second color
is On. This is only possible with a dual colored LED.
Fast Waver The LED is alternating between two colors as in Slow Waver but
using a higher frequency.
Running This means that all LEDs are lit, one at the time, in sequence with every
color available i.e. “Power green->Power yellow->Traffic 1 yellow->Traffic 1
red->Traffic 2 yellow->Traffic 2 red->. . . ”
As an example, "Slow Waver (Green/Yellow)" means that the LED is slowly blinking
by alternating between green and yellow.

Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 User’s Guide 15 (26)
4.1.1 Interface mode
The device is in Interface mode when connected to the PC via USB. If the Power
LED is showing a steady green light, the device is in Interface mode and working
correctly. When connected to the computer for the first time, the Power LED will
blink slowly in yellow until the driver is installed and the device has received a USB
configuration.
When in Interface mode, if the Power LED is yellow for an extended period,
something is wrong. Please see Table 3.
When the device is connected to Kvaser Memorator Configuration Tool (in
Interface mode), the LED will be showing any of the states shown in Table 5.
The power should never be removed during disk activity or when
firmware update is in progress.

Table 9: Configuration of the 9-pin D-SUB
4.4 CAN bus termination
Every CAN bus must be terminated with a 120 Ohm resistor at each end of the
bus. The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 does not contain any CAN bus termination,
because their inclusion could cause severe disturbance in a system which is
already correctly terminated.
For laboratory or testing use, the exact value of the termination resistors is not
always critical. Sometimes a single terminator is sufficient. For production, proper
termination is essential. If you see error frames on the bus, you should check the
termination.
To save yourself a lot of trouble, always terminate the CAN
bus properly.
4.5 External trigger input
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can be set up to trigger on an external signal and
can be configured to react on both falling and rising edges.
• If it is set to trigger on a falling edge, the trigger is activated when the
External trigger is connected to ground.
• If it is set to trigger on a rising edge, the trigger is activated when the External
trigger is disconnected from ground.
There are two ways to create such an external signal, either connect a switch from
the External trigger input on CAN channel 1 to ground or connect a signal between
0 and 5 V to the External trigger input. See Section 4.3, CAN connectors, on
Page 17 for pin numbering.

Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 User’s Guide 19 (26)
Figure 7: Example of how to connect a button to the External trigger input.
The trigger input is debounced by the firmware so that a pulse of shorter length
than approximately 30 ms will not be detected.
Internally, the External trigger input has a pull-up to +5 V, see Figure 8 on Page 19
Figure 8: The External trigger input inside the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2.
4.6 External trigger output
The Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 can be set up to send an external pulse through
the External trigger output pin. See Section 4.3, CAN connectors, on Page 17 for
pin numbering.

4.7 Daisy Chain Several Devices
You can daisy chain several Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to gain additional logging
capacity. To do this, connect the trigger output of one device to the trigger input of
the next device. Using the Kvaser Memorator Config Tool, configure the trigger
output of the first device to emit a pulse when the disk becomes full. Configure the
trigger input of the second device to start logging when a falling edge is detected.
Set the post-trigger time to 0 (infinite) and the pre-trigger time to 1 s. You now have
a setup where the second unit starts logging when the first one becomes full.
4.8 Updating the firmware
For the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to communicate with the host computer,
compatible versions of the Kvaser CANlib (including driver) and firmware must be
installed.
The latest versions of firmware and drivers can be downloaded for free at
www.kvaser.com/download.
Connect the Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2 to your PC with the USB cable and start
the update.exe application. A window opens showing the Firmware Update
Instructions, read and follow those carefully.
To check the current firmware version, open “Kvaser Hardware” which can be
found in the Control Panel. Select “Kvaser Memorator 2xHS v2” in the tree view to
the left, and click on the channel. The firmware revision information now appears in
