alarm is raised.
Byte 1
Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0
Not Used Priority (0 to 7) Reserved Data
Page
The following table is used to simplify determination of the value for Byte 1.
NOTE: Data Page is most commonly zero (0). However, ensure to check the
documentation of the CAN transmitting device.
The PDU Format value details the specific or broadcast address. The interpretation of PDU Specific
changes based on the PDU Format value:
• Where PDU Format is between 0x00 and 0xEF (0 and 239), the message is referred to as
Peer-to-Peer (P2P), PDU Specific contains the destination address.
The destination address is the device that is expected to act upon the message. Other
devices may read the message but are not expected to act upon it.
• Where PDU Format is between 0xF0 and 0xFF (240 and 255), the message is referred to as
a Broadcast message, intended to be received by any device. In this case, PDU Format and
PDU Specific together indicate the parameter group.
• The PGN is the Data Page, PDU Format and PDU Specific together and is usually referred to
in Hexadecimal.
The Source Address is used to indicate the specific application on the network where the CAN
message has been sent from. Every network application must have a unique ID (253 addresses are
available (0 to 253).
Details where in the 8 Byte data packet the specified SPN is to be found.
Parameter Description
Byte Byte number (1 to 7) where the SPN is found.
Bit Which bit of the specified Byte that the SPN starts.

Parameter Description
D.Places How many decimal places to include in the displayed value after the processing
of the value according to Bus Value and Mapped Value settings.
Suffix Free text entry of the Suffix (typically the units) of the display. This is displayed
along with the instrumentation value.
Example showing two instruments with Suffix of kPa and ºC
Parameter Description
Bus Value Smallest Details the smallest and largest values that are expected to be
Bus Value Largest received in the CAN data.
Mapped Value Smallest Details how the Displayed Values relate to the received Bus Values.
Mapped Value Largest For example:
Bus Value 0 to 240.
Mapped Value -40 to 210.
This configures the device to display -40 when the value 0 is received
and to display 210 when the value 240 is received. Values in between
are linearly interpolated.
Depending upon user preferences alternative units are sometimes required. The table below includes
common SPNs with non-metric units.

Parameter Description
Override Control Mode Highest priority: Used for situations that require immediate action
Priority (SPN 897) by the receiving device in order to provide safe vehicle operation
(i.e., braking systems). This level of priority should only be used in
safety critical conditions
High priority: Used for control situations that require prompt action
in order to provide safe vehicle operation. An example is when the
transmission is performing a shift and requires control of the engine
in order to control driveline reengagement.
Medium priority: Used for powertrain control operations which are
related to assuring that the vehicle is in a stable operating condition.
An example is when the traction control system is commanding the
engine in order to achieve traction stability.
Low priority: Used to indicate that the associated command desires
powertrain control but is needed for function which improves the
driver comfort which may be overridden by other devices. An
example is cruise control or the non-critical part of a transmission
shift to a new gear.
Transmit Rate (SPN 3349) This parameter indicates the transmission rate at which the sending
device transmits the TSC1 message. The engine adjusts its timeout
for TSC1 messages accordingly.
