Telemetry systems based on CAN BUS technology have become an indispensable tool for managing and monitoring a fleet. CAN BUS (Controller Area Network) enables the collection and processing of telemetry data from different parts of the vehicle, contributing to more precise fleet management, optimized fuel consumption and increased road safety. The PratiMe system's integration with CAN BUS lets companies track key vehicle parameters in real time, improve operational efficiency and make better business decisions.
Key parameters tracked by CAN BUS
The CAN BUS system reads and tracks numerous key parameters that affect vehicle operation and performance. These parameters include:
- Precise data on the amount of fuel consumed enables better control and lower costs.
- Real-time tracking of the mileage of every vehicle.
- Display of axle load.
- Engine temperature.
- Engine RPM.
Safety data and diagnostics via CAN BUS
Telemetry data from CAN BUS provides detailed information about driving safety, letting fleet owners track and improve safety standards. Some of the key data relates to speeding. The CAN BUS system tracks vehicle speed and sends a notification whenever a set limit is exceeded.
Benefits of fuel tracking via CAN BUS
One of the most important aspects of CAN BUS telemetry is fuel consumption tracking. By using CAN BUS technology, the telemetry system can read the exact fuel values at the engine's input and output, giving a clear picture of actual fuel consumption. This information enables:
- Lower fuel costs - Precise fuel consumption tracking helps optimize consumption and use resources more efficiently.
- Preventing misuse - Using CAN BUS data helps detect unauthorized use of fuel.
- Increasing fleet efficiency - Better route planning and operations based on actual fuel consumption data.
Integration options with CAN BUS
CAN BUS telemetry can be used for different types of vehicles and systems, from heavy goods vehicles to agricultural machinery. The PratiMe system enables integration with various protocols and adapters, including:
- FMS CAN - Protocol for heavy goods vehicles.
- LV CAN - Adapter for light goods and passenger vehicles.
- ALL CAN - A versatile protocol for all types of vehicles, including agricultural and heavy machinery.
- OBD II - Diagnostic connector for reading data from passenger and light goods vehicles.
