What is CAN Bus? | CAN Communications

What is CAN Bus and how can I decode CAN Bus messages? Given the choice, is CAN Bus the way to go?

CAN Bus is the primary communications network that runs through a modern vehicle, understanding it is becoming more critical than ever and by gaining a good overall understanding of CAN protocol you can undertake your own CAN communication projects yourself from start to finish. We're going to touch on that in this [FREE LESSON].

CAN Bus are two distinct terms that are linked together but refer to different things. These are:
CAN - Controller Area Network. Communication language for devices.
Bus - Physical wiring connection

One of the advantages of pairing these two together is that a CAN Bus can reduce the time and material required in the making of a harness by carrying multiple signals on the same wire.

I looked at several Can Bus videos to send to a client and of all the videos on Youtube, this one makes it the clearest. Thank you - your explanation was great.

[Mattstech]

This was a great introduction! Good analogies for those unfamiliar with this potentially exciting, or exasperating, depending on what you're doing - communications technology.

[MADMATTRS]

Excellent intro thank you guys. I am just starting my CAN journey so this was a good start 😇

[kmgb]

This was a great introduction, thank you.

[Botho]

Great video. Clear and concise information articulate super professionally.

[scottlecky]

A good clear introduction. Well done 👍🏼

I miss Zac in the regular programming, was good to see him again!

I hate to say it, but the involvement of sws and can bus systems in the modern vehicle spelled the end for the diy car modder. And sure on paper it makes sense, and is meant to be simpler, smaller and more cost effective, but look under the dash of any modern car and theres wiring "everywhere"! Ill stick to a 90's style one wire for every function type deal, it always seems simpler and added benefit, anyone can work on it.
Its hard to change...I know i need to get with the times. Cheers for the great content.

Man. I never understand can and bus terminology. Thanks man. GOD bless.

What about a shield for the can bus, also what about the two terminal resistors

[digimon]

So at its bare minimum, its overall purpose, is similar to how dmx cables changed the lighting industry but for cars? More data received/sent through a single or less wires?

I am interested in the class, but I would like to use an Arduino-Can adapter to get data to my arduino for display and dissection. Does your class better clarify the programming and how to understand raw data of CAN systems, or is it geared towards using a proprietary software to interpret that data.

There seems to be something wrong with the link to enroll in CAB Bus communications classes. Has the location changed?

[tomcelica]

What is can bus? I think people smoke it in glass pipes.

[andygomez]

Not to be ULTRA anal, but the CAN protocol or any other similar protocol can be more closely compared to as grammar or rules of communication. The language comparison would more closely be analogized with say using either hex or binary to relay raw information and to deliver that information, you would need a protocol because of the TX/RX properties you’d want in a bus.

[sporkybutterz]

Why don't they standardize CANbus?

تشکر وسپاس لطفا ترجمه بفارسی ندارد اقدام نمایید ..همه زبانها وجود دارد بجرز ترجمه فارسی ویدیو؟؟؟؟؟؟🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌👌💝💝💝

[Takeitlightly]

Leave all classes on youtube, i am feeling lethargic to log in every single time..🥱
