PL1000T Communications Module

The PL1000T Communications ECM is an “Electronic Control Module” (ECM) that is designed in order to provide the following communication features:

  • Customer Communications Module (CCM)

  • Sea Water Module Interface (SWMI)

  • Engine Vision Interface Module (EVIM)

  • Global Positioning System Interface Module (GPSIM)

  • J1939 Bridge

  • CAN Extension Bridge

  • Cat Datalink (CDL) Tunnel

  • Cat Datalink (CDL) Boost

Note: The product name PL1000T Communications ECM will be referred to as PL1000T.

Each of the communication features provide specific advantages that enhance communication capabilities for an application. While some of the PL1000T features are required to be in operation independent of other features, some features can be implemented with other features.

Refer to Table 1 in order to determine the combinations of PL1000T features that can be enabled simultaneously.

The first column of Table 1 specifies the available communications features.

The second column of Table 1 specifies the PL1000T is capable of simultaneous implementation for the following:
