CAN Networking and CAN Data Menu
Detecting CAN Nodes
The SCS 4000/5000 Series console must be able to communicate with the CANbus system to ensure that the
products are applied correctly. The SCS console should automatically establish communication with the boom/
speed node, the AccuBoom™ and AutoBoom™ nodes (if installed), and up to five product control nodes via
the CANbus.
When a node is detected, the node will the program and version of the connected node is displayed in the CAN
Data Menu. To access the CAN Data Menu, press the DATA MENU button until CAN is highlighted at the
bottom, left corner of the SCS display. Use the arrow up or down keys to scroll through the list of possible
nodes
Note:
If a node is not found, troubleshoot the node to determine why SCS console cannot communicate
with the node. See the Troubleshooting section later in this chapter for more information about
CAN communication failures.
Node Version Information
The CAN Data Menu displays program number and version of each node detected on the CANbus.
Retry CAN Initialization
If a node, or nodes, currently connected to the CANbus system are not displayed in the CAN Data Menu, press
the POWER key to cycle power to the console. If nodes still do not display properly when the console is
rebooted, the CANbus system may need to be readdressed. Proceed to the next section for instructions on
readdressing the product nodes.
Readdressing the Nodes
If the SCS console is unable to detect a CANbus node on startup, troubleshoot the CANbus and the node (see
the
section on page 18), and then readdress the CANbus:
Note:
Only product nodes need to be addressed (single product, dual product, motor control, etc.).
1.
From the main screen, press the DATA MENU button until the CAN option is highlighted in the lower, left
hand corner of the SCS display.
2.
Use the up or down arrow keys to select the “Readdress Control Nodes” option on Page 2 of the CAN Data
Menu.
3.
Press the ENTER button to begin readdressing the product control nodes.
4.
When prompted to reboot nodes, disconnect the logic power from the product node to be controlled as
Product 1. After approximately 3 seconds, reconnect the node’s logic power. The SCS console should have
recognized the node as Product 1.
Note:
The SCS 4400/4600 consoles feature an integrated product control channel which will always
appear as Product 1.
5.
If additional product nodes are installed in the CANbus, repeat step 4 to readdress additional product
nodes.
6.
Press the ENTER button to finish readdressing the product nodes and resume normal operation.
