Labrie’s Multiplexed System
Labrie has equipped your AUTOMIZER
TM
HELPING-
H
AND unit with a CAN bus-based multiplexed system,
which integrates a monitor, a control panel, a joystick,
and a set of electronic modules. This whole system has
been designed to help you operate your unit in an
efficient and easy way. Labrie’s multiplexed system is
reliable and safe, and it requires less wiring harnesses
to operate. It can also monitor various function status
of the body and display warning and caution messages.
Through its monitor (see Figure 3-1), Labrie’s
multiplexed system informs you of any malfunctions
that may occur during the operation of the truck.
Various caution and warning messages can be
displayed on the monitor, depending on the
seriousness of the situation. Yellow-highlighted
messages indicate that caution should be used while
red-highlighted messages indicate a warning situation
that must be dealt with quickly.
