General Information Introduction As part of the MurphyLink® family, the Murphy CANdrive™ offers a cost effective instrument solution for modern electronic engines. CANdrive acts as an interface between ECU CANbus/J1939 transmitted data and standard electric indicating gages. CANdrive and electric gages are an alternative solution to retrofitting of engine senders, magnetic pickups and associated wiring.
Cut L1 to remove 120 Ohm terminating resistor. Leave L2 intact for 12V operation Cut L2 for 24V operation Leave L3 and L4 intact for Murphy gages (see compatibility table) Cut L3 only for Datcon gages (see compatibility table) Cut L4 only for VDO gages (see compatibility table)
Gage Compatibility Tables Electrical Connection CANdrive modules electrical connection is through a 12-way automotive type receptacle shown right. CANdrive models are available with the connector facing forward through the front label (‘F’ option, e.g. model CDV100F), or rearward through the epoxy encapsulation (‘R’ option, model CDV300R).

At 1500 RPM engine speed, the output is approximately 121 Hz, suitable for driving charge alternator based tachometers such as the Murphy AT(H)A series. Pin 7 gives no output below 100 RPM engine speed. Connect each output to the appropriate gage/ tachometer signal input.
Panel Mounting WARNING: Do not install the CANdrive module near exhaust manifolds, turbochargers or other engine locations that might exceed the maximum allowable operating temperature of 185°F (85°C). CANdrive modules are surface-mounted with four no.4 screws, fixing center dimensions as shown.
Operation and Maintenance Gage Driver Outputs Gage outputs operate when CANdrive module reads valid J1939 data for engine speed, oil pressure and coolant temperature. If CANdrive module stops receiving valid data, the gage outputs are maintained at the last known value for approximately five seconds, after which time the outputs are turned off.
Maintenance CANdrive modules have no user-serviceable parts. Maintenance is therefore limited to the following preventative checks: • Check that electrical connections are secure. • Check that the CANdrive module is securely mounted and kept free from exposure to water or build up of excessive dust/dirt. The front label and casing may be wiped with a clean, damp cloth.
