How does ezBUS work?
HEX ezBUS is a three-wire power circuit system built into the white output circuit of all Generation II ezCANs. As well as supplying regular 12-volt power, ezBUS functions as a local interconnect network (LIN-bus) channel, allowing two-way communication between connected smart accessories.
In context of ezBUS, a smart accessory is an electronic accessory that has been designed with a pre-configured digital address.
How many ezBUS-Certified accessories can I connect to the ezBUS?
Under optimal circumstances, you can connect up to 16 smart accessories to the ezBUS circuit.
A range of MT-to-MT, MT-to-JWPF, JWPF-to-JWPF and MT-to-MT-&-JWPF connectors are available to allow connection of almost any compatible smart accessory. Browse the ezCAN product category in the Hex online store for details.
How to add an ezBUS accessory to the 'white' HEX ezCAN circuit?
Enabling ezBUS functionality on any Generation II ezCAN is simple. All you need to do is set the ezCAN’s white output to ezBUS mode, connect all smart accessories to the circuit, do a device scan, and configure the smart accessories.
