Multi-Channel Node or ECU Configuration

Some Raven CANbus nodes or ISOBUS ECUs may offer multiple channels for product rate control via the CANbus network. The number of channels available via these multi-channel or “multi-product” nodes may be increased or decreased for the equipment on which they will be used. It is recommended to configure nodes for only the number of channels offered by the vehicle or application equipment.

Note:  Some multi-channel nodes may require a feature unlock or activation code to allow access to additional control channels. Contact a local Raven dealer for more information or to purchase additional node capabilities.

To configure a multi-channel node:

  1. Select the Settings icon on the bottom right of the screen. The Settings Menu will open.

  2. Locate and select the CAN System module. The CAN System tab will be displayed.
  3. Select the Reset Product Control Node button at the bottom of the CAN System tab. A prompt with the currently set number of channels will be displayed.

  4. Select the Current Channel value and use the on-screen keypad to enter the desired number of channels to be controlled via the multi-channel node.

    Note:  ROS will only allow the operator to enter a value for the maximum number of channels currently available via the multi-channel node. Contact a local Raven dealer for more information or to purchase additional node capabilities.

  5. Select the OK button to accept the displayed value. The ROS device will reconfigure the multi-channel node and restart CANbus communications.
