Hi,
I managed to install the EGT to CAN. Now I like to have the temps to CAN1.
From the manual I got the IDs but nothing on the EMU black or the PMU?
What am I doing wrong? A simple CAN BUS issue or do i mussunderstand something around the manual (id from hex to dec).
Dave
Is the EMU, EGTtoCAN and PMU all on the same CAN bus? assuming its all on CAN1. Do you have CAN communication between devices on the bus?
Give us as much context as you can, how its wired, config files etc.
1552 decimal = x610 hex, provided you haven’t changed the default values on the EGTtoCAN then you’re good
PMU has a CANX template for the EGTtoCAN, highly recommend using that as its easier.
If they are all on the same bus then there’s no need to have the Black send the values to the PMU, the PMU can just grab data that’s already on the bus.
The way you have the Black’s user CAN stream setup has no data being transmitted, just the addresses are selected but you need to go one step further and define the data being sent on each bit of that address.
Hey Tyson,
nice to read you The configuration is all on CAN1, maybe you remember assisting me on that. I Changed the Adress to 610 on the EGT like mentioned in the manual.
All devices working well, as I added the EGT to CAN no errors etc. But on the other hand also no communication in live view. This is why I tried to add a new message object in the PMU for troubleshooting. As you can see from the screenshots no data.
Luckely I have the switchboard running and was able to see how it should work.
Oh hi David, didnt clue in based on the username sorry.
In that case use light client to see whats being broadcasted. You do have to click ‘make permanent’ on the EGTtoCAN software as well when making changes, so you’ll be able to see what’s its sending on. Have light client open and plug/unplug the EGT and see what changes in the CAN data
I haven’t done one of these EGT boxes in around 2 years and but I think you just send data on that address and the Black knows what to do with it. I even opened the tune from that customer and he doesn’t have a user defined CAN stream doing the receiving.
See what Light Client tells you and go from there.
Yeah same with all other computer like things, its probably just a simple little check box somewhere you’ve missed lol
If the CAN bus is working but Light Client doesnt see the EGTtoCAN’s data then make sure the CAN wiring connection is good at the module.
If there’s a problem on the bus Light Client, ADU or PMU software is pretty good at telling you. since you can still communicate with the PMU that leads me to believe that the EGTtoCAN might not be connected or working right
I will keep testing and send a feedback.
