DBC CAN file conversion to HWPDMCAN

Hi, I am looking to import a CAN configuration file that was created by my GEMS ECU software in DBC format, I can't export the data in any other format.


I have tried to import that file directly but nothing changes. Is there a conversion utility in use to format it correctly for Hardwire?


TIA

Can bus keypad issues with Holley Term X

Hey everyone,


I am having a weird issue where my keypad (Blink Marine 12) seems to become disconnected from the PDM. The keypad stays lit but the buttons no longer function. I do not have a termination resistor at the keypad (I know this is not ideal since it is at the end of the canbus), but with the Terminator X handheld hooked up for datalogging and the Holley usb cable the resistance between the Can Hi and Can Low is already 53 ohms. Does anyone now if the lack of resistor could be the problem or is this a setup issue? I really appreciate any advice!

It’s possible the handheld or usb cable has a resistor in it. You want the bus to be at 60ohms. You may have too many.

Just eliminating the obvious, but you are clicking the "Retrieve" button after connecting?

No tripped option in the outputs


How come I don't show a tripped option on the outputs, the tripped count doesn't seem to do anything.

1.1.6 has an issue with this. If you need it, let me know and we can send the 1.1.7 pre release which has this fixed. you can get around it by using a generic function output x status > 1 Then use that in the fault LED condition.
