CAN Bus Display Features
The M4 CAN bus display family are designed as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) product, and are not available direct to end users. Formerly known as the CANvu 260/261, Veecan 260, and Teleflex Kantrak 2700/2710 the displays have become invaluable in an extremely wide range of applications; from weather stations to machines literally at the coal face, boat engine displays to performance monitoring on rock crushers, and many more diverse applications.
Now in its 3rd generation of hardware, the M4 and M4h, the multi-function intelligent displays have been sold for decades worldwide, model names have changed over the years but hardware compatibility has been maintained.
Compatibility Quick Reference Check
- M4 previously our CANvu 260, compatible with the 2700 from Kongsberg, and 7200 by Seastar
