Introduction
The WABCO Multifunctional CAN Gateway (MCG) is a CAN data gateway that is designed to
transmit information from a source CAN bus to a target CAN bus. For this purpose the MCG is
configured so that when it is connected to the source bus, it does not cause interferences on the
source bus or transmit signals from the target bus to the source bus.
