Introduction
The Yanmar CANplus®600 (CP600™) control panel is an
economical platform to monitor and control electronically
governed diesel engines. Graphical gauge pages or a single
large analog gauge are displayed on the 4.25” diagonal
LCD. Virtually any SAE J1939 parameter reported by the
ECU (Engine Control Unit) can be displayed including RPM,
coolant temperature, oil pressure, engine hours, voltage and
diagnostic codes. The trans-reflective, backlit display is
clearly readable in both bright sunlight as well as total
darkness and is housed in a rugged IP67 rated housing.
Current alarm conditions are displayed in plain language on
popup messages and can be viewed in the alarm list.
Various diagnostic screens allow detailed investigation of the
CANbus data stream. By accessing the Configuration Menu,
users can customize displayed data to show metric or US
units, display language and various other parameters such
as the full-scale reading of gauges.
Five buttons access a context dependent button bar when
any button from 1 to 4 is pressed. The graphical menu
structure uses easily understood icons to indicate the
button’s current function. After 5 seconds of inactivity the
button bar disappears.

Note
Most problems with electronically controlled engines can be pinpointed via ECU diagnostic
messages. Use the display or ECU diagnostic tool to view fault codes.
Engine state information and diagnostic codes
displayed by the CANplus display are provided via the CANbus.
Throttle Control
The standard Ramp Throttle uses a momentary rocker switch to adjust the integral throttle control. All throttle
commands are sent directly to the engine using CANbus throttle control.
Note
Throttle control requires CANbus throttling to be enabled in the ECU.
CANbus throttling is also known as Torque Speed Control or TSC1.
Rotary potentiometers are available for ECUs that do not support CANbus throttle control.
Other throttle options include Digital Rotary Throttle,Two-State Throttle (Idle/Run) or Three-State Throttle
(Idle/Intermediate/Run). The Digital Rotary can be installed with the Throttle Ramp Throttle or Three-State
Throttle to adjust the Idle,Intermediate and Run speeds.
Service Timers
The CP600 display provides sixteen (16) service timers to alert the operator of needed maintenance. The
time interval for each timer can be adjusted in 10 hour increments. A popup message is displayed after the
display self test if a timer has expired alerting the user that service is required. The message is displayed on
each power up until the elapsed timer is disabled or reset.
LOFA CANplus Messenger Telemetry Option
The optional LOFA CANplus Messenger system provides a variety of features to protect and support the
equipment investment. Remote monitoring can alert maintenance requirements, operational problems,
improper operation and location with geo-fence alert. The Web-browser interface allows monitoring an
entire fleet of equipment in a central location. Contact Yanmar for more information.
When replacement parts are required, Yanmar recommends using replacement parts
supplied by Yanmar or parts with equivalent specifications.
Failure to heed this warning could lead to premature failure,
product damage, personal injury or death.

Operation
Turning the control system key to the run position
energizes the ECU and a start-up screen is displayed
while a self test is performed. If the display beeps for
longer than 1 second, it indicates a self test fault.
Users can attempt to rectify the fault by restoring
factory defaults (see Configuration Menu for details).
Contact Yanmar for assistance if the fault persists.
After the start-up screen is cleared, the display shows
readings on its virtual gauges. Initially the analog
gauges are displayed but the display uses the last
displayed screen on subsequent startups (see
Preferred Screen Store for details).
If the ECU is preheating when the key switch is
turned to the run position, the preheat splash screen is displays. Preheat time varies with atmospheric and
engine conditions. After preheat finishes the display changes to indicate the engine can be cranked. The
engine is cranked by turning and holding the key switch in the start position until the engine starts.
Note
The ECU will not preheat unless conditions warrant. If necessary, starting the engine may be
attempted by turning the key to the start position without waiting for preheat to expire.
The key switch is spring loaded to return automatically to the run position when released.
The key switch includes an interlock to prevent the key from being turned to the start position
while the engine is running. The key switch must be turned to the off position to reset the
starter interlock before the switch can be turned to the start position again.
Throttle Control
The type of throttle operators installed along with the configured values of Minimum Requested RPM, Idle
RPM, Intermediate RPM, Run RPM and Maximum Requested RPM determine throttle operation. The engine
speed can be adjusted above Run RPM and below Idle RPM but the requests can not fall below Minimum
Requested RPM or above Maximum Requested RPM. The ECU determines how the engine responds to the
throttle requests and will not allow the engine speed to fall below the ECU minimum or maximum RPM.
Note
The Minimum Requested RPM and Maximum Requested RPM
can only be configured using the CANplus Configuration software.
See Configuration below for more information.
Ramp Throttle
The standard Ramp Throttle uses a momentary rocker switch to adjust the requested engine speed. When
first started the requested engine speed is Idle RPM. Pressing and releasing the rabbit icon increases the
speed requested by 25 RPM. Pressing and holding the rabbit icon causes the speed to accelerate to full
speed in a few seconds. Similarly, pressing the turtle icon decreases the requested speed.

463-3000-09 Initial - 16-May-2008 5
Two-State Throttle
The optional Two-State Throttle uses a two position rocker switch to adjust the requested engine speed.
Pressing the rabbit icon requests the engine to go to Run RPM. Pressing the turtle icon requests the
engine to go to Idle RPM.
Three-State Throttle
The optional Three-State Throttle uses a three position rocker switch to adjust the requested engine speed.
Pressing the rabbit icon requests the engine to go to Run RPM. The intermediate position requests the
engine to go to Intermediate RPM. Pressing the turtle icon requests the engine to go to Idle RPM.
Digital Rotary Throttle
The optional Digital Rotary Throttle uses a rotary switch to simulate the operation of a throttle potentiometer.
Like the Ramp Throttle, when first started the requested engine speed is Idle RPM. Turning the throttle knob
clockwise increases the requested engine speed. Turning the throttle knob counter-clockwise decreases the
requested engine speed.
Note
When used in combination with the Three-State Throttle, the Rotary Throttle can only be used to make
speed adjustments when the switch is in the intermediate position.
The Rotary Throttle can be used to reprogram the Idle,Intermediate and Run RPMs when used in
combination with the Ramp Throttle or Three-State Throttle. After adjusting the engine to the desired
speed with the throttle knob, press and hold the knob and then press and hold the throttle switch
position to be changed. After two seconds the current speed has been stored, the knob and switch can
now be released.
