COMMUNICATION DATA BUSES

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

86-4-7

CAN Bus Switching

A = CAN H; B = CAN L

CAN Message Transmission
Messages transmitted via the CAN system are made up of eight data bytes and transmitted using a baud rate of 5,000 
kbits per second. The twisted pair of wires used are coloured yellow and black (CAN_H) and yellow and brown 
(CAN_L).

The following table lists the signals transmitted via the CAN system illustrating the system originating the message 
and the message recipient:
