BIM-01-2-J1939
Bus Interface Module for J1939 vehicles
This Bus Interface Module is designed to read engine information from the J1939 bus. The module is connected to the
J1939 Bus through CAN bus-adapter harness to the CANH (RED WIRE) and CANL (BLACK WIRE) on the main harness.
There are two interface (I/O) ports on the BIM-01-2-J1939 module. Either one can be connected to the instrument system
or to another module, allowing several units to be daisy chained together.
Cannot daisy chain with GPS-50-2.
Do not connect the I/O port to anything other than a Dakota Digital control box or BIM.
Do not mount the module in the engine compartment; as it should be mounted in the vehicle's cabin.
The engine information that is available from the unit depends on the ECU programming and add-ons.
Readings this module monitors for: vehicle speed, engine RPM, engine coolant temperature, engine oil pressure,
engine light (MIL), intake/manifold air temperature, trans fluid temp, fuel level, ambient air temp, fuel pressure, air fuel
ratio, gear and boost.
The engine and transmission information that is available from the unit depends on your ECU and add-ons.
A GPS-50-2 CANNOT be linked (daisy chained) to a BIM-01-2-J1939 with a BIM cable.
The two units cannot talk to the display control box at the same time.

  • Page 1 J1939 Bus through CAN bus-adapter harness to the CANH (RED WIRE) and CANL (BLACK WIRE) on the main harness. There are two interface (I/O) ports on the BIM-01-2-J1939 module. Either one can be connected to the instrument system or to another module, allowing several units to be daisy chained together.
  • Page 2 Setting up the display system will configure the instrument control box to read each input from either the terminals or through the BIM cable from the Bus Interface Module. The BIM menu of the display will not find the BIM-01-2-J1939, but will find specific channels for Fuel Pressure, Oil Temp, Boost and Air/Fuel Ratio.
  • Page 3 Tap SW1 until  and DONE are displayed. • Press and hold SW1 until “-” and DONE are displayed. Obtaining engine temperature from the BIM-01-2-J1939 • Hold the SW1 switch from the instrument system control box while turning the key on.
  • Page 4 Tap SW1 (I) until TACH DONE is displayed. • Press and hold SW1 (I) until a big DONE is displayed. Obtaining engine temperature from the BIM-01-2-J1939 • Hold the SW1 (I) switch from the instrument system control box while turning the key on.
  • Page 5 VHX Setup Continued: Obtaining oil pressure from the BIM-01-2-J1939 • Hold the SW1 (I) switch from the instrument system control box while turning the key on. The message display should show SETUP. • Release SW1 (I) - LCD1 should show SETUP SPEED.
  • Page 6 HDX and RTX setup: **HDX/RTX systems can be configured with the Dakota Digital app for Apple and Android devices** HDX and RTX Operations • HDX: With the ignition key already on, press and hold both switches to enter SETUP, release when instructed.
