Multiplex Integrated Control System Description
Body Controller Area Network (B-CAN) and Fast Controller Area Network (F-CAN)
The body controller area network (B-CAN) and the fast controller area network (F-CAN) share information between multiple electronic control units
(ECUs). B-CAN communication moves at a slower speed (125 kbps) for convenience related items and for other functions. F-CAN information moves at
a faster speed (500 kbps) for "real time" functions such as fuel and emissions data. To allow both systems to share information, the gauge control module
translates and relays the information from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN. This is called the Gateway Function.
Gateway Function
The gauge control module acts as a gateway to allow both systems to share information. The gauge control module translates and relays the information
from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN.
