The Engineer’s Guide to CANbus is, we can modestly say, one of the most comprehensive practical publications on CANbus technology which has been published to date. And what’s more, it’s FREE.
Specialist vehicles where modular sensors and controls are connected to a network backbone are now possible thanks to the widely used CANbus. You can throw away the wiring loom – and replace it with two wires! Smart gauges and sensors can be directly connected to the CANbus. Control modules can read/send data, display systems can read/log data, and – because it is a network – it is irrelevant where components are physically located. Information display panels show the driver/operator what he needs to know. Logging of information feeds the service system and panels display information where required.
We’re very proud of this introductory guide for all engineers, which of course is available free: just complete one of the forms below and we’ll email you a copy, or post you one (UK and Ireland only) if stocks allow.
