Basic CANBUS information - not specfic to volvo

Post by volvolugnut »

I went looking for some training info on general canbus technology and found a company in Europe that makes canbus data loggers. They also have some good training and basic information on the history, use and advantages on canbus in vehicles, machinery and factories. I learned a lot in a few minutes, but need to go back for more study. Here is the link

They make data loggers that look like they may be able to link to any OBDII connection and read anything the canbus sees. Has anyone at MVS tried to use this capability?
