Link CAN Communication Cable for G4+/G4X Plugin ECUs
Overview:
This cable is designed to add CAN (Controller Area Network) communication capabilities to Link G4+ and G4X plugin ECUs that feature a 5-pin CAN connector. The cable plugs directly into the CAN socket on the ECU's PCB (Printed Circuit Board) and provides connections for 12V power and ground via flying leads. It terminates to a DTM4 male connector, ensuring compatibility with other Link CAN accessories.
Key Features:
Compatibility: Suitable for Link G4+ and G4X Plugin ECUs with a 5-pin CAN connector.
Direct Connection: Plugs directly into the CAN socket on the ECU PCB.
Power and Ground: Provides 12V and ground connections via flying leads.
DTM4 Male Connector: Ensures compatibility with Link CAN accessories like the CAN Extension Cable (CANEXT) and CAN Splitter Cable (CANTEE).
DTM4 Pinout:
Pin 4: CAN High (CAN H)
Pin 3: CAN Low (CAN L)
Pin 2: Ground
Pin 1: 12V
Installation:
Connect to ECU: Plug the cable into the 5-pin CAN socket on the ECU's PCB.
Connect Power and Ground: Attach the flying leads to a 12V power source and a ground connection.
Terminate with DTM4 Connector: The DTM4 male connector can be used to link with additional Link CAN accessories.
Incompatibility Note:
This cable is not compatible with the following PlugIn ECUs, which require a CANJST4 cable instead:
233-4000: PlugIn ECU G4X Honda S2000 AP1
Applications:
This cable is primarily used to add CAN communication functionality to supported Link ECUs, allowing for integration with various CAN-enabled devices and accessories. This is particularly useful for advanced data logging, sensor integration, and networked communication within a vehicle's electronic system.
Accessories:
CAN Extension Cable (CANEXT): Extends the reach of the CAN connection.
CAN Splitter Cable (CANTEE): Allows multiple CAN devices to be connected to the ECU.
By using this CAN communication cable, you can enhance the connectivity and functionality of your Link G4+/G4X Plugin ECU, enabling more sophisticated data management and integration with additional CAN-enabled components.
