Legal information and responsibility
Thomson Technology takes no responsibility for installation or operation of the engine set. If there is
any doubt about how to install or operate the engine controlled by the unit, the company responsible
for the installation or the operation of the set must be contacted.

Electrostatic discharge awareness
Sufficient care must be taken to protect the terminals against static discharges during the
installation. Once the unit is installed and connected, these precautions are no longer necessary.
Installing the unit implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore, the installation should
only be carried out by authorised personnel who understand the risks involved in working with live
electrical equipment.

Safety issues
Factory settings
The unit is delivered with certain factory settings. Given the fact that these settings are based on
average values, they are not necessarily the correct settings for matching the individual engine.
Thus precautions must be taken to check the settings before running the engine.
Definitions
Throughout this document a number of notes and warnings will be presented. To ensure that these
are noticed, they will be highlighted in order to separate them from the general text.

Option J – CANbus J1939
Communication system
All these protocols are based on a CANbus communication system. Except for the MDEC and
ADEC communication, all of them are based on the J1939. The MDEC and ADEC protocols are
MTU designed protocols based on CANopen.
The baud rate is fixed by the engine manufacturer at:
MDEC, ADEC Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, Deutz, Iveco, John Deere, Perkins,
Scania and Volvo Penta
125 kb/s 250 kb/s
EIC unit
The selection of the EIC unit (menu 10970) determines whether bar/PSI and Celsius/Fahrenheit is
used. The selection affects display readings, values used for alarm evaluation (menu 76xx) and
data readable by Modbus communication (option M).
Common for all alarm functions
A number of alarms can be configured.
The following items can be configured to an alarm:
Menu number Alarm

Verification of J1939 objects
To verify the communication, various CAN PC tools can be used. Common for these are that they
must be connected to the CANbus between the MEC 310 unit and the engine controller. When the
tool is connected, it is possible to monitor the communication between the two units. For use of the
CAN tool, please refer to the manual for the product used.
As an example, you may see the following telegram:
0xcf00400 ff 7d 7d e0 15 ff f0 ff
DATA BYTE: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
- 0xc is the priority
- f004 is the PGN number (61444 in decimal value)
- The 8 bytes following the CAN ID (
0xcf00400
The priority needs to be converted to decimal. Note that the 3 priority bits in this case are displayed
in the CAN id (You see 0xcf00400 instead of 0x0cf00400). In other cases you may read e.g.
0x18fef200 (PGN 65266).
PM077 R1 09/08/20 Page 8 THOMSON TECHNOLOGY
) are data, starting with byte 1
MEC 310 GENSET CONTROLLER -
Option J – CANbus J1939
The formula to find the priority number (P) is to divide by 4:
0xc = 12 (Dec) => Priority 3
Priority DecID HexID
1 4d 0x4
2 8d 0x8
3 12d 0xc
4 16d 0x10
5 20d 0x14
6 24d 0x18
Normally in SAE J1939, only priority 3 and 6 are used.
Hereafter the data can be read (PGN 61444):
0xcf00400 xD ff 7d 7d e0 15 ff f0 ff
Engine torque (Data byte 1) ff Not available
Driver demand torque (Data byte 2) 7d
Actual engine torque (Data byte 3) 7d
Engine speed (Data byte 4) e0
Engine speed (Data byte 5) 15
Source address (Data byte 6) ff Not available
Engine starter mode (Data byte 7) f0
Engine Demand (Data byte 8) ff Not available
Calculation example:
RPM resolution is 0.125 RPM/bit, offset 0.
The result is then 15e0 (Hex) or 5600 (dec)*0.125 = 700 RPM.
