NOTE: The CANport Communication Board is optional and replaces
the Input Remote Module on Carbide systems.
Preparation:
The following procedure should be performed with the vehicle off.
1. Locate your vehicle’s Star CAN C port, typically found under the driver-
side of the dashboard (Dodge Durango & RAM) or the Passenger-side
(Charger). Refer to your Owner’s Manual for the exact location.
2. Locate the CANport Interface Cable (included). This cable allows the
CenCom Core system to communicate with your vehicle’s CAN
network.
The interface cable is comprised of the following connectors:
• One 2-position MQS connector
• One 3-pin connector
Connecting to the CANport network:
3. Plug the female MQS connector onto the vehicle’s Star CAN C port.
4. Plug the interface cable’s 3-position connector into the CAN2 port on
your CenCom™ Core.
The CenCom Core system is now connected to the vehicle’s OBDII
network. The vehicle’s emission and diagnostic data may now be
accessed
via
the Male OBDII connector installed earlier in this installation.
Programming:
Configuring the CenCom Core system to interact with the CANport
network requires a Windows®-based laptop computer. This connection
requires a USB cable and is only needed during the programming
process.
