Connecting to the CAN bus
Please refer to the Webfleet Solutions tooling for the CAN configuration of your specific vehicle.
Tips for the installation
•
For direct connection to the CAN bus select the wire to be as short as possible and needed. Do not wind
the CAN wires.
•
Always read the vehicle manufacturer manual for working on the electric BUS system of the vehicle.
•
Do not cut the vehicle's wire harness but use a special wire stripper.
•
If you have to remove the insulation of wires that are close to each other (e.g. CAN wires), make sure
that the places where the insulation is removed are at least 2 cm away from each other to avoid short
circuits.
•
After the installation, places with removed insulation need to be secured with electrical insulation tape
(if possible with heat shrink) and afterwards with a layer of fabric insulation tape.
Note: You can use the LINK CAN Sensor 100 accessory to establish a contactless connection to the CAN 1
or CAN 2 bus.
