2.8 Checking B-Bus
Network Termination
Type
When using multiple iDash Gauges
and/or Banks Modules it is very
important that there be ONLY one
(1) termination in-cab. Otherwise
your iDash 1.8 may have trouble
communicating to other devices on the
network.
Check which iDash 1.8 Hardware
Revision you have.
Look behind the
iDash 1.8 as shown in
Figure 2-12
& Figure 2-13
to visually confirm
the
Jumper Block Termination
.
Alternatively you can check the
“
Hardware Rev:
” in the “
System
Information
” menu, as shown in
Figure 2-14.
If you have Hardware Revision
1, you must use the In-Cab
Terminator.
If you have Hardware Revision 2, you
will have the pre-installed Jumper
Block Termination.
DO NOT
use the
In-Cab Terminator
for HW Rev 2 iDash 1.8.
