Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN, MS-CAN2)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The MS-CAN operates at a maximum data transfer speed of 125 Kbps and is designed for general information transfer. Modules on the MS-CAN communicate using bussed messages. The MS-CAN uses an unshielded twisted pair cable, data bus (+) and data bus (-) circuits. In addition to scan tool communication, the MS-CAN allows sharing of information between all modules on the network.

The GWM is used as a gateway for the messages to transfer between the scan tool and the modules on the MS-CAN.

The GWM translates the diagnostic messages from the HS-CAN2 to the MS-CAN and vice versa, allowing communication between the modules on the MS-CAN and the scan tool.
