The VTT CANNECT START-STOP DISABLE (POWER) is a CAN Bus interface designed to automatically disable the “Start-Stop” function on vehicles where this feature is not desired. Each time the vehicle engine is started, this interface automatically disengages the “Start-Stop” control so that manually overriding of the function is not necessary. The “Start-Stop” function can be re-instated by the driver at any time during the journey as desired but will automatically cancel again the next time the vehicle is started.

Applications

The VTT CANNECT START-STOP DISABLE (POWER) interface is extremely popular with refrigeration and temperature controlled vehicles. Many refrigeration transportation companies suffer from the engine cutting out when the vehicle enters “Start-Stop” mode, which in turn shuts off the power to the temperature controlled storage at the rear of the vehicle. This poses huge problems as these systems require constant power during transportation to keep them at the desired temperature. By installing our START-STOP DISABLE (POWER) interface, this completely eradicates this issue and has proven to be a huge success amongst existing customers. Most “Start-Stop” systems incorporate a manual override control, but the specification for special vehicles may often require the override to be an automatic feature. Most vehicle suppliers are not able to offer this facility as an option.

The VTT CANNECT interfaces are the latest development to our range of CAN Bus products, these products feature some unique advantages over general CAN Bus interfaces.

The most important feature of the CANNECT range is that they are updatable. The CANNECT product firmware is under continual revision to keep pace with the latest vehicle applications. The CANNECT update service is available to our trade and account customers and requires the purchase of CANNECT-RUI Interface to access the latest software file downloads. Please enquire if you are interested in our CANNECT-RUI service and we will aim to assist you.

Another important feature is our Remote Support Service. The CANNECT-RUI is a dual function interface that not only provides the software update to the interface but can also be utilised by one of our engineers to remotely analyse new vehicle CAN systems or issues with existing compatibility. All that our customers require to benefit from this service is a laptop or notebook PC and a sufficient internet connection. We aim to rectify compatibility issues and offer compatibility to new vehicles within 1 hour of connection.

All CANNECT interfaces feature a bi-colour status LED that provides a clear indication of the interface operation. Most CANNECT products also feature direct compatibility with our contact-less CAN Bus reader to enable connection to the CAN system without any metal to metal contact.
