Protocol CAN Bus

Specifies which CAN bus to transmit/receive data on (only visible when more than one CAN Bus line exist in the connected MaxxECU).

CAN ID OFFSET

Specifies an offset value to be added to the above protocol IDs. Both positive and negative values can be used.

Note: Just be careful and make sure you know you are doing :)

Example CAN ID OFFSET usage

KMS CAN Display protocol output, with not offset added.

Example offset of "2".

KMS CAN Display protocol output, with not offset "2".

message rate

Available for the default v1.3 protocol.

•Default (10/50Hz) - 10Hz for the SLOW packages, and 50Hz for the FAST packages.

•User settings - Set custom rate for SLOW/FAST packages.

slow package rate

Sets the speed of all the SLOW packages.

FAST package rate

Sets the speed of all the FAST packages.

Note: To determine which are SLOW/FAST packages, see MaxxECU Default CAN output page.

Instr. cluster fuel flow correction.

Used to correct MaxxECU fuel consumption sent to the OEM dash, make sure to calibrate the MaxxECU fuel consumption before even try to adjust this value.

Note: only available on the supported OEM CAN protocols, so this settings might not be visible for your OEM CAN.

Wheel speed correction.

Used to correct the wheel speed coming from OEM ABS system (not available on all protocols) into the MaxxECU when an OEM CAN protocol is activated.

Verify and adjust the correction (%) value using an GPS or similar to make sure the wheel speed in MaxxECU is accurate.

Note: Make sure to enter correct wheel circumference in Speed/Gear --> Wheel setup before attempting to adjust this correction value.

Coding option

Used on some OEM CAN protocols where there are some "coding" options to make ABS/TC happy. Currently only used (and visible) by the Mazda RX8 protocol.
