4 System requirements
The communication between bus systems and control units is monitored, and relevant data can
be recorded very precisely with the data logger. The collected data are stored to the logger and
can be downloaded via Ethernet to a PC.
Control Unit
You need a Windows based Laptop or PC to configure the devices by the System Client. It
also allows to save the recorded data and to use them offline later.
System Client
Update, configure and read out your data loggers with System Client. Save time with central ad-
ministration of your software products. System Client is your key to success for using all our
products!
BLUEPIRAT Rapid
High-performance multi-bus data logger for modern vehicle architectures based on Automotive
Ethernet. With up to 3 TB internal memory and supreme recording performance. Robust and
compact for in-vehicle use.
Due to the increasing complexity of driver assistance systems and the growing number of info-
tainment applications, the data traffic between ECUs in the most recent vehicle models has
grown significantly. Consequently, besides the various classic bus systems, modern vehicle ar-
chitectures are based on Automotive Ethernet according to BroadR-Reach / IEEE 802.3
100(0)Base-T1, which can keep up with the growing bandwidth demand.
Power Backup
The Power Backup is a special component, which is designed to bridge short voltage interrup-
tions. It is connected upstream of the data loggers on the voltage side, and must be connected
to them via a dedicated LS CAN port for controlling.
BLUEPIRAT Mini
The BLUEPIRAT Mini is smallest data logger in the world with an outstanding functional scope.
It offers a wide range of interfaces, stable temperature behavior, very low energy consumption,
four GBit Ethernet ports, and much more. Different blue PiraT Mini can be expanded flexibly to
one cluster and therefore handled very easily by using System Link.
BLUEPIRAT2
The BLUEPIRAT2 is our top-class all-in-one data logger. Seven models cover a wide range of
interfaces. (Device is EOL)
BLUEPIRAT2 5E
Additionally, the BLUEPIRAT2 5E offers improved power management and power backup, five
integrated Ethernet ports and super-fast start-up behavior. The BLUEPIRAT2 can be expanded
flexibly via System Link. (Device is EOL)
Remote Control Touch (optional)
Operate your BLUEPIRAT data loggers safely and comfortably from the driver’s or passenger
seat. Via System Link our new remote control becomes part of your logger network. One remote
control can handle all connected loggers.
BLUEPIRAT Remote (optional)
While Remote Control Touch is just a control unit for handling unique devices or a TSL network,
the blue PiraT Remote additional has logger functionality by offering internal storage and some
interfaces. (Device is EOL)

Figure 6.1: Front side of the BLUEPIRAT2
Attention:
If you have ordered an external antenna, e.g., for GPS, the connector has to be bolt only
by hand NOT with any tools.
Figure 6.2: Front side of the BLUEPIRAT2 5E
Attention:
At BLUEPIRAT2 ONLY the front Ethernet port is available for controlling the data logger
and download data.
Index

BLUEPIRAT2 | USER MANUAL/ page 16 of 82
On the front side of the BLUEPIRAT2 you will find the display and some control elements.
The BLUEPIRAT2 is available with one 1-Gbit-Ethernet port on the front and also with four addi-
tional 100-Mbit-Ethernet ports, where an Ethernet switch is integrated. A mini switch is available
with 4 RJ45 connectors.
6.1 ON / Trigger button
The [ON / Trigger] button is used to switch on the BLUEPIRAT2 if the data logger is connected
to the power and currently in sleep mode.
During operation, interesting points in time can be designated by the [ON / Trigger] button.
When pressing this button, the data logger saves the current time to hard drive. It is possible to
configure the data logger to send a CAN message as an acknowledgement of setting a marker.
Additionally, it is possible to define a message that triggers a marker. In all cases, triggers are
debounced, allowing only up to ten triggers in between every two seconds.
When downloading the data, the client displays all markers in an event overview. In this event
overview, the client can be configured to transfer the data around the selected markers.
6.1.1 Resetting the network settings
Important notice:
Due to a wrong network setting it might be impossible to reach the data logger any more.
In this case the network configuration can be resetted by a long press on the [ON / Trig-
ger] button for ca. 5 –10 sec. to default settings: DHCP server with IP:192.168.0.233.
Afterwards the data logger can be reached again by using a direct connection with a
PC/Laptop.
6.2 OFF / Esc button
If the BLUEPIRAT2 is operating and you hold the [OFF / Esc] button for longer time, the data
logger will go into the standby mode.
If you only push the [OFF / Esc] button for short time you leave the current menu state.
