CAN bus settings
Background
With new emission legislations the requirements on customer panels increases and a document describing what needs to be implemented in the OEM CAN panels is needed.
Requirements on OEM panels
There is one message that has to be sent to the VP EECU and that is the VP status message. See section VP STATUS MESSAGE: OC FF 46 11. Without this message the EECU will set a fault code on the CAN bus and disregard more communication.
Engine interface connector (EIC)
The EIC contains 8 pins with the following functions:
1 CAN High
2 CAN Low
3 Battery minus
4 Battery plus
5 Ignition and energized to run extra stop
6 Energized to extra stop
7 J1587A
8 J1587B
This is where any CAN panel shall connect to battery plus and battery minus in order to be powered. Battery after key and extra stop shall get the positive voltage from pin 4 (battery plus) when powered.

Battery after key - signal
The battery after key - signal is a “wake up” signal to the EMS. When this pin get powered the main relay will be activated which will power the EMS and the EMS will start to communicate.
This pin should have power for as long as the EMS is supposed to communicate. The EMS will hold this relay even without getting power via this signal once the software is up and running. However, in order to avoid problems in the aftermarket, it shall always be power on this pin when the EMS is supposed to communicate.
NOTICE! The battery after key signal can be configured via VP aftermarket tool. So that the engine will stop if power is removed from the pin. (Pin 5 in the 8- pole Engine Interface Connector; EIC). It shall also always be possible to power this pin without having to start the engine in order to be able to work on the engine with after market tools.

Extra stop - signal
The stop input signal, stops the engine when voltage is applied to this pin. (Pin 6 in the 8-pole Engine Interface Connector; EIC)
Never have a stop signal being continuously sent to a powered control unit. If there is a continuous active stop signal over time, it could damage the engine control unit. 

The voltage to the stop signal should come from pin 4 in the engine interface connector.

Diesel Generator Power Ratings: Standby vs Prime vs Continuous

Diesel generator sets are commonly used in a variety of sectors due to their dependable performance and high efficiency. They can be used for emergency power supply in the event of a power cut or used in places without connection to a power grid. When selecting a diesel generator for your home or business, you need to consider many factors, such as generator’s ratings. In this article, we’ll explain the three basic rating types - standby, prime, and continuous in diesel generators. ISO-8528-1:2018 defines basic generator set rating categories based on four operational categories: Emergency Standby Power (ESP), Prime Power (PRP), Continuous Power (COP) and Limited-Time Running Prime (LTP). Read on and learn the application of power ratings for engines used in generating sets. Standby Power Rating Standby Power(ESP) is used to supply emergency power when the external power supply is interrupted, such as power outages. Standby power rated generators can supply reliable electricity as t...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
