Frame layout

Note

The frame layout is defined in the CANmod.temp DBC file

The temperature frame contains the Cold-Junction (ambient) temperature and four sets of thermocouple sensor status and temperature readings.

In the following TL (Top-Left), TR (Top-Right), BL (Bottom-Left) and BR (Bottom-Right) refer to the locations of the thermocouple sensor connectors (see Connector back)

XXStatus

The Status signals can take one of the following values:

  • 0: OK

  • 1: Cold-junction error

  • 2: Hot-junction (sensor) connection error

  • 3: Hot-junction (sensor) range error

Note

A temperature should only be considered valid if the associated status is OK
