Specific Vehicle Manufacturer Considerations: 

DAF 
 
DAF LF and CF models, both manufactured in France are configured with the Secondary CAN-Bus 
disabled by default.   In this case the function will need to be enabled with a CTC II programmer with 
2.6 firmware or later or Stoneridge Optimo or other capable device (see Page 23).     
 
Iveco and MAN 
 
See “Red plug already inserted in C connection” on page 7. 
 
Renault 

 

Some models may be configured with the Secondary CAN disabled, See DAF above. 

Mercedes 
 
If the Mercedes has a co-joined connector in connections A and B at the rear of the Tachograph then 
we produce a double plug arrangement (see Page 7 and Page 12). 
 
From 2012 onwards Mercedes upped the Baud Rate of their Secondary CAN.  The digiDL firmware 
was updated in version 1.18s to cope with this change.  You must upgrade earlier versions of the 
firmware. 
 
Many Mercedes have a Red plug fitted to the C Connector on the rear of the Tachograph.  We can 
confirm that the Mercedes Fleetboard system does not use data from this connection so it can be 
safely removed.  See “Red plug already inserted in C connection” Page 7.
