    Calibration. Calibration is performed when the MCP110 cannot use the J1708/1587 data link for Performance Monitoring input. After sensor calibrations have been determined, the dispatch computer operator needs to send the calibration numbers to the MCP110. See RPM Calibration and Speed/Distance Calibration.
  • Page 210 J1708 Enabled. “J1708 enabled” means that the MCP110 has been set up to look at J1708 data via the J1708/1587 data link. The dispatch computer operator must send a message to the MCP110 that “tells” it to understand input from the J1708/1587 bus and define driving thresholds.
