CAN messages and signals 
In the default configuration the CAN bus uses identifiers 500h to 5FFh for RT status 
information;  600h to 60Fh for navigation information; 610h to 613h for RT-ANA 
messages and 620h to 623h for the additional slip points. 
Using the configuration software it is possible to change the default message identifiers. 
Only one status message is output per cycle (100 Hz or 250 Hz output rate) you do not 
get each status message at the specified rate. 
All values from the RT are encoded in little-endian format (Intel-style). 
Termination resistor 
The CAN bus output does not include a termination resistor. It is essential to include a 
120 Ω resistor at each end of your CAN bus—otherwise the CAN bus will not work. 
CAN-DB file 
NAVconfig can output a CAN DBC file that contains all the measurements the RT is 
configured to output. See the CAN option in NAVconfig (page 70). 
CAN bus messages 
Table 40 lists all the messages the RT outputs on the CAN bus and the identifiers that 
are used for each message. The signals in each message are listed in the tables that follow.
