CanBus for Beginners - Super Simple

Does enyone know how meny canbus I need for Valtra Q? It has 3. party unlock.


Hello ,I have this meatpi device ,on SavvyCan I can not see coming CAN-Bus messages.I have add end resistor 120ohm but still nothing.
What do I miss ? which firmware I need to upload to meatpi ?

The firmware should be fine as it is, don’t change it. Via the web interface, change the output type to SavvyCAN at set baud rate (typically) to 250k. You don’t need a terminator for this, usually.

Also, if you don’t see messages, explain exactly what you’ve done and show the meatpi web interface settings. I presume you also joined your PC to the meatpi wifi AP?

The bus speed that I am going to listen is 500K. I plug the meatpi device to PC and configurate it via web interface.Set savvycan protocol as you said .then I connect my pc to my router network .
and then I open savvycan .choose Network Connection (GVRET) ,İt find the IP automatically.Although all of this ,no data coming .What do I miss? I am sending you configuration photos.
Thanks a lot for your help



Does whatever this device is require CANBUS termination? More detail would be useful


What version of SavvyCan are you using? I have been having lots of issues with recent versions. In the connect window there is a tick box “Console Window”. Tick it and see if you get packets in the console window. If you do, it is a Savvycan bug. If you don’t, your dongle is not connecting.

I have found BusMaster to be far more stable than SavvyCan. Bit of an older Windows ribbon interface but very reliable and feature packed.

I use V213.Finally ,Several times I succes to see CAN-Bus messages on SavvyCAN ,But generally no messages come.
I will try with BusMaster .I hope it is user-friendly

Found another CAN software package TSMaster. Definitely a learning curve but feature packed.

Hello everyone, just bought a brand new steer-ready Deutz-Fahr 6150.4 TTV and came across this forum lately and I am loving it! Which connector should I look for? I can’t find this connector on the right that Mr. BrianP has. I asumme that I can’t steer the tractor through diagnostics connector. Would need some help, I’ll attach a photo.

Thank you and nice greetings from Slovenia :slightly_smiling_face:

Is this not it?

We’ve got a 2023 and 25 model which no longer have that Canbus diagnostic connector.
I haven’t checked the socket Andy is highlighting above but otherwise check behind the AC control panel and should be a connector and pair of wires labelled auto guide.

I’m looking for right canbus for aog from valtra q. Is it can3 and eny idea where can I find it, else than from roof?


I have found cables for CAN 1, 2, 4 and 6

Avez-vous trouvé quelque chose ?

I’ve got a 2023 6160RC shift connected there and works fine.

And to which socket is it connected ?

I just followed the 2 wires down to the fuse box and Teed into them there.

I’m looking to make a 6160 Warrior 2025, the fuse box is behind the seat. There is no circular connector as in the other models.

Have you checked behind the A/C control panel for that connector?
I’ll check in the morning which is can H and L.


Ok I found the connector, for now I have the WAS but no guidance. I’m on can3 PCB Tony Brand Massey/Valtra
