CAN2 connection
The CAN2 network is used to connect the CANtrak display and a third-party autopilot
that is certified by Dometic to work with the EPS system.
NOTE
The details of each autopilot's network connection will be specific to
the manufacturer, so be sure you read and understand the instructions
that come with the autopilot system.
5.3.1 Planning
You will need to build a small CANbus network with a node (tee connector) for each
actuator, each display, and for the autopilot. Locate the nodes close to the devices
and use an extension harness to create a network backbone. Your network will look
similar to figure
(only one actuator is shown, but you will need to connect both
15
in a twin-actuator system). The CAN2 bus is powered by the SCU, so a separate
power supply connection is not required.
