4.3 Configuring The Outputs For Gauges
Now that you have configured the desired signal and the related input variables in the "Primary CAN
Data" area (and, if applicable, the "Secondary CAN Data" area), you are ready to configure the output of
the CAN2-002 module.
Note - the CAN2-002 module will only work with electric gauges. Mechanical gauges that connect
directly to the engine or other vehicle component for manifold vacuum, boost, oil pressure, speedometer
cable etc. will not work with the CAN2-002 module. The gauge must be the type of gauge that gets a
signal from either a sensor/sender or from an electronic module.The CAN2-002 module will also not work
with gauges already expecting a CAN signal. The CAN2-002 module takes in CAN data but it outputs
simulated analog signals and can't be used to send CAN data from one device to another CAN device.
4.3.1 Gauge Presets
Gauge Presets exist for some of the most common aftermarket gauges. Because many of the
aftermarket gauges use the same sender for multiple part number gauges, the same preset for one
gauge will work with many other gauges. If your gauge uses the same sender as the gauge listed in the
preset pull down menu then you can use that preset.
When you select a Gauge Preset it configures the output Function, the Output Type, the Output
Settings and the CAN data.
If your gauge isn't listed in the gauge presets then you will need to calibrate the output for your gauge
type.
[More gauges to be added to the preset pull down menu including OEM applications.]
4.3.2 Function Output Options
Four possible output Functions exist for the CAN2-002 module:
Analog Gauge
Speedo/Tach Gauge
Relay Control
Voltage Out
Off is used if you are not using this output channel.
Analog Gauge is used for most temperature and pressure gauges including engine coolant temperature
and oil pressure gauges. The CAN2-002 module sends out a fixed frequency, variable duty cycle signal
to similar and analog signal. This can be used to simulate pressure or temperature type signals.
Speedo/Tach Gauge is used for most electric speedometers and tachometers. In this mode the CAN2-
002 output is sending out a fixed duty cycle variable frequency signal to simulate the signal that an
electric speedometer or tachometer might receive from an ECM or a speed sensor.
Relay Control is used to control one or two relays per channel based on CAN signals. The relay control
can be:
Simple Off to On (normally Off)
Simple On to Off (normally On)
Window Switch On
Window Switch Off
