CAN bus wired to Diagnostic connector

(1/3) > >>

zamzon:
Is a real (BMW) CAN bus supported by the GS911 or just the K line?

Is it possible to communicate with the internal ("high speed") can bus (for example of the R1200GS 2012), when wired to the 10pol diagnostic connector Pin 9 and 7?

Thanks.

Thomas

The GS911 and GS911 Bluetooth are K-Line only, The GS911 WiFi is K-Line and CAN-Diag

When thinking about CAN BUS there is a difference between CAN BUS and CAN Diag, perhaps not the best to wire CAN out to the diags socket

The person I am aware of who has done the most extensive work around the BMW CAN BUS is CBDane over on the K1600 Forum

Thanks. I read about the "CAN bus adventures on the K1600"

If I knew before, I might have bought the newer interface, but I never thought, that THE CAN ONE AND ONLY CAN BUS INTERFACE for the R1200GS in fact has none.

But on the other hand the new one has no BT (I think) and with WLAN during riding I have bad experience (because passing by to may WLAN networks, disturbing the on board one to transfer live values).

With the WifI so far I have had no interference from other devices  when recording real time, if it proved a problem I am sure Hexcode would address it in some way. Why BMW did not implement a K-Line to CAN interface in the BMS is a good question, another good question is why they did not retain the K-Line for engine/ABS electronics as they did in the cars

AFAIK, there are laws (for environmental reasons) governing the OBD spec on cars (and thus the reason for retaining the K-line on cars because it is part of the spec), but these laws do not apply to motorcycles.
