CAN instrument panel operating guide
8.1 - Introduction
：
With the development of vehicle electronics, there has been an increase in electronic components and vehicle data to
monitor. The development of the ZB277 instrument panel provides for the following:
It can process data faster and display more information; it has the characteristics of a traditional display and CAN bus
dashboard
The instrument panel can display the data from CAN bus. Almost all of the vehicle electrics can be connected to vehicle
CAN bus, for data sources.
The data transmitted is digitized, making it more effective to display. The pointer table driven by the stepper buttons and
the true color TFT LCD screen provide an excellent platform for the display of many electrical functions.
More Accurate Data
：
Because the instrument panel transmits data and displays it using digitizing methods, it has complete error correction, and
does not produce additional errors.
Higher Reliability
：
The CAN has data reliability, because of the digitizing methods; it also has a low failure rate, as it is designed for certain poor
working conditions. It only communicates with the vehicle, and provides a reliable indicator of the vehicle status.
The Simplest Wiring:
The instrument panel has only two bus (CANH, CANL), one fire wire (+24), one ground wire (GND) and one wake up wire
(WAKEUP).
