VIDEO VBOX LITE MANUAL

Advanced CAN Options

CAN Baud Rate

The default Baud rate of the Video VBOX LITE is set at 500 Kbit, the user
has the option of selecting 125, 250, 500, and 1MBit.

CAN Mode

There are two CAN modes available for selection under the Mode
dropdown in CAN and Module Configuration:
VCI
The 'VCI' CAN mode should be selected if the Video VBOX LITE is to be connected to a third party CAN bus
such as a vehicle CAN bus.
Racelogic
The 'Racelogic' CAN mode should be selected if the Video VBOX LITE is to be connected to any Racelogic CAN
modules such as the Mini/Micro Input Module.
Send Acknowledge
When in Racelogic mode the Video VBOX LITE is automatically configured to send out an acknowledge pulse
over the CAN network. This is necessary for any modules to correctly communicate with the Video VBOX LITE.
NB: Caution should be taken if the box has been configured to send out an acknowledge pulse when in VCI
mode as the Video VBOX LITE may be placing unwanted data on the vehicle CAN bus which may cause
unexpected vehicle behaviour!

Manual Editing of CAN Parameter Fields

If the CAN parameter information needs to be modified or if no CAN database is available but the CAN parameter
information is known, the CAN parameter fields can be manually entered for each channel.
1. Click on the channel button that is to be modified, this will bring up the channel settings box. Clicking the
'Advanced Options' drop down arrow will expand the box allowing the advanced options to be modified.
2. The CAN parameter fields can now be updated or modified,
