- Tractor ECU (TECU) -
• Standardized Gateway between implement bus and tractor
• 3 Support-Levels:
•Class 1 - basic tractor data to implements:
•Wheel and Radar Speed; rear PTO Speed and Hitch position; Lighting
•minimum requirement for ISOBUS compliant tractors!

•Class 2 - additional tractor data to implements:

•Draft; Driving Direction; front Hitch position; front PTO Speed; SCV Status

•Class 3 - implements can request certain tractor behavior:

•ground speed, hitch position, hydraulic oil flows etc.
•bi-directional communication for productivity optimization
•Vehicle system evaluates and priorities incoming requests!
•Final control remains with operator!
• Addendum F - Front PTO and/or front Hitch support

- Diagnostics -
• Mixed multi-brand systems require standardized Basic Diagnostic
Services
• Faulty controllers send standardized error codes which can be
interpreted by any diagnostics tool (J1939 DM1, DM2, SPN, FMI)
• Any diagnostic tool can read basic information from the connected
controller like
• Implement type and manufacturer name in human readable text
• HW and SW version codes
• Machine serial number
• etc
• Standard supports proprietary diagnostics beyond common basic
services (detailed controller diagnostics)
• The support of the basic diagnostic messages will be mandatory for all
connected controllers for end of 2007! Details

 Diagnostics
The standard defines two level of diagnostics:
1. Basic system diagnostics (mandatory for all controller)
2. Advanced more detailed diagnostics (may proprietary, optional implementation)

Controllers shall provide

o Network information
o NAME information
o Part#, Serial#
o Manufacturer name in text
o Software version (Msg similar to Deere implementation)
o Compliance test data including data and laboratory
o Controller diagnostics information
o ECU specific diagnostic protocol supported for detailed level 2 diagnostics (J1939,
KWP2000, none)
o Active diagnostic trouble codes (SPNs and DM1)
o Previously active diagnostic trouble codes (DM2)
o Fault occurrences (if available)
o Member of working set (if a member)

26
1st March 2007
 Diagnostics
The Service Tool shall
o Display the Network information per controller
o Display the Diagnostics information per controller
o Display the Network statistics
o bus voltage
o bus load
o CAN error information
o The tool doesn’t need to support all level 2 type diagnostics (J1939,
KWP2000), it’s enough to just display the protocol supported by the
diagnosed device
