About Product:
Originally developed by Bosch in the 1980s, CAN (Control Area Network) is a robust system which enables high-speed communications and signals between different systems on a vehicle without the need for complex wiring. An increasing number of manufacturers utilize CAN Bus for managing systems such as lighting, heating, instrumentation, suspension, braking and engine control with separate ECUs which can be linked with a single pair of wires, thus drastically cutting down the total amount of wiring required within a vehicle. This allows the different ECUs to work together effectively and efficiently. The engine reports the vehicle’s speed to the transmission, for example, which in turn must tell the gearbox when to shift up or down. Using a CAN system allows vehicle manufacturers to build in additional equipment but reduces the overall weight of the installation. It allows for simplified electrics, therefore addressing issues with specific areas of the vehicle or individual component systems becomes more straightforward as each can be isolated and diagnosed via the OBD port. The CAN messaging system consists of ‘CAN Frames’ containing bits of data associated with the various inputs that a system or component requires to operate. A basic ‘CAN frame’ contains 11 bits of data, more complex, extended systems can contain up to 29 bits of data. The data transmitted between ECUs can trigger commands, confirm activation and report errors , amongst a host of other two-way interactions.
