dashCAN* (i.e. all dashCANs) is a small (105 mm x 63 mm x 63 mm for dashCAN and
dashCAN2, or 105 mm x 63 mm x 165 mm for dashCAN+) display for CAN networks
containing ECM CAN modules.
dashCAN2 has two displays and two programmable analog outputs. dashCAN+ has two
displays and six programmable analog outputs. dashCAN* comes with a two meter cable
and a "T" (P/N 09-05). Simply attach dashCAN* to the CAN bus and parameters from one
or two ECM CAN modules can be displayed and converted to analog outputs (dashCAN2 or
dashCAN+ only). The top display and half the analog outputs can be assigned to one module
and the bottom display and the other half of the analog outputs can be assigned to the same or
another module. Multiple dashCAN* displays can be attached to the CAN bus.
dashCAN* has two modes of operation: RUN (when measurements are displayed) and SYS
(where dashCAN* is set-up). The SYS key toggles between the modes.
While in RUN mode:
i. If the  button is pressed, the displays will show the serial numbers of the modules
assigned to the displays.
ii. If the  button is pressed, the displays will show the parameter names assigned to the
displays. See Table 2.
iii. If the ENT button is pressed, the displays will show the units of the parameters.
"PCTG" is %. "dIM" means dimensionless.
In RUN mode, four things other than data can be displayed:
i. "ERR" and "####" where "####" is an error code. See Table 3.
ii. "...." which means that a module has not been assigned to that display.
iii. "----" which means that dashCAN* has an internal problem.
iv. "XXXX" which means that dashCAN* is not receiving any data from the module
assigned to that display.

Using the dashCAN* Display
