messages that are only transmitted once per beacon event and periodic
diagnostic messages that are transmitted 20 times per second. The
messages are available as channels within the ADL.

Recommended Messages

The following messages are the most useful for normal operation and should
be ticked on in the BR2 CAN template, and should be logged to establish that
the beacon system is performing correctly.

on.

BR2 CAN Diagnostic

BR2.
