Startup
You need to connect the power supply to start the display. In addition, you need to connect
the display to your CAN-Bus or to your analogue inputs. Both are optional. You can also run
the display with analogue inputs only.
After powering up the display, you can see the start logo and the display will change to the
last selected view. If you press the encoder, the menu will show up. Turning the knob will
select the other views or lead you to the setup (“stp”), after confirm with a second press.
First of all you should go to the Setup („stp“) => „options“ => „CAN type“ and select the
desired protocol: trijekt, AIMRev6Typ2, Megasquirt2, Ecumaster, KMS, VAG. If the
appropriate protocol is not included, please drop as an email (
[email protected] ). The
CAN-Bus speed is set to 500kbps. Protocol and speed need to match to get the display
working. All other settings can be left default for now.
Behind the menu “sensors” are all sensors which have been implemented. Here you can
change all minimum and maximum values. When exceeding these limits an alarm can be
generated – either by popup or just a small yellow triangle at the top right of the screen.
“Update” is for firmware updates of the display.
“Reset“ puts all settings of the display back to default.
In the gauge on the top right you can find a tiny RED pixel. If the display receives data from
the CAN-Bus it starts flickering red/green. If no messages are received it’s steady red. This
can be due to no CAN-Bus connection, Can-Bus within your ECU has not been activated or
CAN-Bus termination (see chapter electrical connection) is wrong.
Operation
The operation of the display is done with the encoder – see chapter startup.
Analogue Inputs
Additional four 0-5V sensors can be connected to the display. The CANchecked website here:
http://www.canchecked.de/downloads has a list of tested sensors. Of course all other sensors
with 0-5V output can be connected as well.
In the “sensors” section of the display the sensor can be mapped to its real values. Please use
the datasheet of your sensor to get the 0V and 5V values to enter them into the display.
