CAN Status Messages

Status Description
CAN 1 OK The CAN bus is working correctly.
CAN 1 DISABLED The CAN bus has not been setup or is not present.
CAN 1 BUS OFF A serious error has occurred on the CAN bus - this may be due to the wrong baud rate being set or the CAN wires shorted together.
CAN 1 Disconnected No messages have been received by the display in the last three seconds.
CAN 1 Warning Errors are present on the bus; this may be due to incorrect baud rate or noise.
CAN 1 Tx not acknowledged A message sent by the Display Module has not been acknowledged by any nodes on the network.
CAN 1 TOO MANY MESSAGES The total number of messages that the display is being asked to receive and transmit exceeds the capability of the CAN hardware. This can be overcome by using CAN message masks.
CAN 1 Rx Timeout Traffic is present on the bus but none of the channels that the Display Module has been set up to monitor on the current screen (and monitor screen) are present.
