Dash 2 - drawing both RPM and Wheel speed from the CAN Bus?

Postby 450nick » Fri Nov 13, 2009 1:04 pm

I've not actually wired my Dash 2 up yet, but I am intending to do so in the following manner:

Emerald K3 ECU ---> DL1 ---> Dash2 (using the CAN link)


I will have the RPM signal and wheel speed picked up and outputted by the ECU via the CAN link which I was going to log with the DL1 and pass to the Dash2, which would enable me to have all data to be displayed supplied by the ECU to the Dash via the CAN link with no inputs connected directly to the Dash.

Sounds very handy, but I've noticed in the manual that is advises against doing this. Is there a good reason for this? What would happen if I did? As I would like the ECU to use wheel speed, so if I do it the recommended way, I'll need two separate wheel speed feeds, one to the Dash and one to the ECU. What should I do??
