The FMS OEM CHIP and the CAR2COM or CAR2BT devices based on it have come a long way during its development and sales. In the beginning it was a device for easy reading of data from the CAN bus of vehicles, but over the years this chip has gradually acquired many other functions. There has also been a switch to a different processor series and repeated rewrites of the application code. Thus, the V7 version of the chip is currently offered. Here is a short listing of the features that the FMS OEM CHIP has gradually received:
- reading and decoding data from the CAN bus
- reading data from the J1708 bus in older Volvo and Renault trucks
- reading data from VDO and Stoneridge digital tachographs from pin D8, especially in vehicles where this data is not sent to CAN
- IBIS bus reading - bus information boards (line number, next stop, etc.)
- reading data from fuel sensors connected via RS232 or RS485, this is a custom solution for specific sensors used by the customer, support for other types can be added on request
- reading data from RFID readers with RS232 interface, for example in cases where the customer has only one UART to which he connects the CAR2COM and requires to connect RFID or other devices
- calculation of driving statistics for driving style evaluation
- version with BLUETOOTH
- vehicle diagnostics using OBD, UDS and KWP2000 via CAN bus
- downloading of digital tachographs via CAN bus
- full remote vehicle diagnostics
- ISOBUS reading in agricultural machines
- reading of specific data from harvesters
- NMEA2000 (N2k) bus reading used on ships
- reading data from spreader bodies, etc.
- customer-specific functions such as data transport to storage on the machines
- user work with CAN bus (receive, send, scan)
- custom definition of read data
- second CAN as FMS gateway
Additional customer-specific functions, HW modifications, etc. can be added free of charge as part of support. The chip can be used separately within its own HW or as a CAR2COM device.
