10. CAN bus engine communication
10.1
Overview
10.1.1 About
There can be CAN bus communication between SGC controller and several engine types.
The SGC controller receives information from the Engine Control Unit (ECU) of the engine. The controller can use the
information as input for its own control functions. The SGC can also use the information as display values, alarms, and as
values to be transmitted through Modbus. If the ECU allows it, the SGC can send telegrams with commands and set points.
You can read the engine data from the SGC over Modbus. See the Modbus tables for more information.
NOTE
See the ECU user manuals for the ECU protocol technical description and details of each communication value.
Default settings
The SGC is delivered with a set of default settings for engine communication. These settings are not necessarily correct for
your engine or genset. Check all the settings before you operate the engine or genset.
