STANDARD COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACES
CAN-BUS COMMUNICATIONS
This CAN-bus interface is fitted as standard. It operates independently of the other communications
interfaces and may be accessed at the same time as them.
The CAN-bus interface uses a proprietary Proton Products protocol. It is exclusively used to
communicate between the unit and other Proton Products modules. The unit automatically detects
connection to other modules and configures the bus appropriately; it is not normally necessary to
manually configure this interface.
The CAN-bus interface is not intended for use with an external CAN-bus network.
