Using the dashCAN Display
The dashCAN display (see below) is a small (105 mm x 63 mm x 63 mm), two-channel
remote display for CAN networks containing LambdaCAN and NOxCAN(g) modules.
dashCAN comes with a two meter cable and a “T” (P/N 09-05). Simply attach dashCAN to
the CAN bus and any two parameters being transmitted from LambdaCAN and NOxCAN(g)
modules can be displayed. dashCAN can display parameters from the same module or two
different modules. Multiple dashCAN displays can be attached to the CAN bus.
dashCAN has two modes of operation: RUN (when measurements are displayed) and SYS
(where dashCAN is set-up). The SYS key toggles between the modes.
While in RUN mode:
1.
If the
↑
button is pressed, the displays will show the serial numbers of the modules
assigned to the displays.
2.
If the
↓
button is pressed, the displays will show the parameter names assigned to the
displays. See Tables 2 and 3.
3.
If the ENT button is pressed, the displays will show the units of the parameters.
4.
“PCTG” is %. “dIM” means dimensionless (ex. for AFR, FAR, PHI, Lambda).
In RUN mode, four things other than data can be displayed:
1.
“ERR” and “####” where “###” is an error code. See Table 5.
2.
“….” which means that a module has not been assigned to that display.
3.
“----“ which means that dashCAN has an internal problem.
4.
“XXXX” which means that dashCAN is not receiving any data from the module
assigned to that display.
When first entering SYS mode, either “MOd” will be on the upper display or “LOCK” will
be on the lower display. If “MOd” is displayed, the
↑
and
↓
keys will roll through the setup
options (see Table 6). First the options for the upper channel are shown on the upper display,
followed by identical options for the lower channel on the lower display, ending with the
global CONF (Configuration) setup. Pressing the ENT key will select the displayed setup
option and allow its programming.
If “LOCK” is displayed, the dashCAN has been locked and its setup cannot be changed until
it is unlocked. Appendix E describes how to LOCK and unlock dashCAN.
