CAN Bus Configuration
This module communicates to the engine ECU via the J1939 CAN Bus network. This is a three
wire connection to the engine ECU. Engine information and alarm codes are broadcast over the
CAN bus from the engine ECU to the controller display. And, the controller communicates throttle
commands to the engine ECU over the CAN bus.
To assure proper communications between the engine ECU and the controller, the correct
SOURCE ADDRESS
and
TSC1 ADDRESS
need to be selected in the controller for the particular
engine make and model. These settings are available in the
CAN CONFIGURATION MENU
.
