MoTeC Configuration 49
Display Setup with Display Creator
When using Display Creator, communications and channels need to be set
up. To automate this, a DBC file is created when the Dash Manager
configuration is saved. This file can then be imported into Display Creator.
The Display Creator Channels and Display Creator Settings tabs are used to
set the definitions for creation of the DBC file. This file is then imported into
Display Creator to automate the communications and channels setup.
External Displays (Display Creator) with CAN
External displays created with Display Creator use CAN for messaging, the
following CAN values must be set:
• The CAN bus
• The address format
• The base address, or select the default.
A warning will display if any of the CAN settings conflict with existing CAN
configurations.
Display Creator Channels Tab
This tab is used to select the channels to include in the DBC file. The DBC file
is created when the configuration is saved.
The DBC file is imported by Display Creator to automate the setup of
communications and channels.
Note: Channels selected in the Display Creator Setting tab (see below) must
also be selected in this list for them to be included in the DBC file.
Display Creator Settings Tab
