CANBUS CB6M200 Multi Output Interface

CB6M200 Multi-Signal CAN BUS Interface for Toyota, Ford, Holden, Isuzu, Mitsubishi, Nissan & VW

The CB6M200 is a multi-output CAN BUS interface designed to extract up to six discrete signal outputs directly from a vehicle's digital network. Engineered for commercial fleet management, telematics tracking, in-vehicle monitoring systems (IVMS), and mining safety compliance, this unit automatically detects vehicle protocols upon power-up without requiring manual configuration or programming. It provides dedicated outputs for 4WD engagement, engine speed (RPM), illumination, brake pedal, driver seatbelt compliance, and handbrake status.

Signal Output Specifications - Note not all outputs are available for all vehicles:

• Illumination / Low Beam: 12V On / 0V Off
• Brake Pedal: 12V On / 0V Off
• Driver Seatbelt: 12V On / 0V Off
• Engine Speed / RPM: 2 pulses per revolution
• 4WD Status: 12V On / 0V Off
• Handbrake: 0V On / 12V Off

LED Diagnostic Sequence:

The CB6M200 features built-in diagnostic LEDs to indicate CAN BUS status and signal output during installation:

• Stage 1: Both LEDs light up for approximately 1 second upon power-up.
• Stage 2: Green LED remains on while listening for CAN BUS data.
• Stage 3: Red LED turns on indicating CAN data detected and vehicle identification in progress.
• Stage 4: Once vehicle type is identified, Red LED stays on and Green LED pulses when the vehicle is driven.

Suggested Uses & Applications:

• Mining & Fleet Safety Monitoring (IVMS): Extracting seatbelt compliance, handbrake engagement, and vehicle operation data for safety logging hardware.
• Telematics & GPS Tracking Systems: Integration with commercial telematics modules requiring discrete engine speed (RPM), braking, and 4WD activity signals.
• Auxiliary Lighting & Safety Beacons: Triggering auxiliary work lights, safety strobes, or interlock relays based on 4WD or handbrake status.

Important Installation & Safety Warnings:

1. The CAN BUS uses two wires for data transmission (CAN High and CAN Low, sometimes marked as "CAN+" and "CAN-"). Connect to appropriate CAN BUS lines using insulated solder joints. Do not cut factory CAN BUS wires.
2. Connect power (+12V) via a clean, ignition-controlled regulated supply with an inline 1A fuse (not included). A solid chassis earth point is essential.
3. Do not extend CAN High and CAN Low leads beyond factory lengths. If extending output signal wires, route away from high-noise electrical components such as ignition coils or heater fans.
4. Disconnect the interface prior to carrying out vehicle OBDII diagnostic scans to prevent communication conflicts or damage.
