External TCU control

Specification:

Any baud rate, 11-bit ID.

Little endian (least significant byte first).

All MaxxECUs has a built in termination resistor on CAN 1. External termination (120 ohm) is recommended for bus lengths over 1m.

MaxxECU PRO with a secondary bus (CAN 2) does not have a built-in terminator resistor.

Wiring loom: Twisted pink / gray. Pink = CAN L, grey = CAN H.

 

 

Base ID

V1 standard base ID: 0x600

V2 standard base ID: 0x450

 

Base ID Offset adjustment

clip1876

Some of the Powertrain controller have the possibility to adjust the base ID using the CAN ID Offset setting. Example if you enter CAN ID Offset = 2, the V1 protocol will listen to 0x602, 0x605, 0x606 and 0x607 instead of the standard 0x600, 0x603, 0x604 and 0x605.

Yes, updated scale

When enabled, the following requests/RT data update will be set from CAN.

 

clip2052

In MTune 1.151 the we added the option to set the VSS SPEED from other source, so the above speed source must be selected for VSS SPEED to come from the external TCU control protocol.
