CAN BUS trip gate - pulse converter for installing taximeters on new vehicles As a result of the latest developments in odometer technology, modern cars no longer have odometer sensors or they are overly sensitive to the additional load imposed by retrofitted equipment. Problems may arise when installing taximeters because the odometer data is no longer securely available. CAN BUS trip gate is an electronic converter that adapts the odometer data obtained from the vehicle's CAN bus into a voltage pulse required for the taximeter. The advantage offered by this new device is that it is not combined with any other source, such as the ABS brake signals, and will thus not affect braking performance in any situation. The unit fits all makes and models that no longer receive the odometer data from the odometer sensor.The unit is extremely easy to install. All that is required is an operating voltage supply, ground, and the connection of two CAN bus leads. The pulse converter from Paetronics is a low-cost alternative for those who do not wish to buy the car manufacturer's complete taxi kit in order to install a taximeter on the vehicle.
