Each time this PGN is transmitted, the interval timer (used for field 5) is reset to 0.
The pulse frequency for a given interval can be calculated by dividing field 6 (number of pulses) by field 5 (duration of interval in seconds). Assuming a steady-state speed, the

error in this calculation will be:

Hz

field5

1

±

Therefore, at very low speeds, it will be necessary to use long intervals in order to collect enough pulses to achieve the required accuracy. Alternatively, the data from fields 5 and

6 may be accumulated over several successive transmissions of this PGN (assuming a steady-state speed over the entire measurement span).
The following transmitted PGNs are linked by their SID fields: PGN 128259 and Proprietary PGN 65409.
See also the proprietary transmitted Calibrate Speed PGN 126720-41.
