4.2 Key Elements of the CAN2 Software Interface
In this section we will go over the key elements of the CAN2 software.
The program window has three primary sections:
Menu options (at the top)
Configuration for the input signals for Output1, Output2, Output3 and Output4 along with CAN status
tab (above the solid horizontal black line)
Output configuration for the output type and signal calibration (below the black line)
4.2.1 Menu Options
As shown above, across the top of the program window you have the following drop down menus with the
following options available:
File
o Open
o Save
o Save As
o Update Library
o Exit
Edit
o Copy
o Paste
Settings
o Units
o CAN Message Setup
Communications
o Connect
o Set CAN Speed [this option is not visible unless a file is open]
Help
o About
o Installation Manual
Menu option changes apply to the entire CAN2-002 module so they are universal across all of the
outputs.
The options within the File, Edit and Help drop down menus are fairly self explanatory other than the
Update Library option.
The Update Library menu option under File is used to update the CAN message library. If new CAN
messages have been added or you have requested a specific CAN message, LPE or your LPE dealer
may send you an updated CAN message library file (Gauge Driver Message Library or ".GDF" file) and
then you would use this menu option to import that file.
The Settings and Communications drop down menus are explained in more detail in the following sub-
sections.
