CP900 CANplus® SERIES CONTROL PANEL
FOR ELECTRONICALLY GOVERNED AND MECHANICALLY GOVERNED ENGINES
The CP900 is LOFA’s universal autostart control panel for Electronically or Mechanically governed engines. Its dual transducers allow for more versatile control logic enabling numerous applications. The panel boasts the robust CANplus 35c high-resolution 3.5” QVGA color display that is sunlight viewable and includes an illuminated, tactile, five (5) button keypad.LOFA’s next generation real-time CANplus RT Software powers the CP900, which is Tier 4F and Euro Stage V compliant. The CANplus RT Software features:
- LOFA’s patent-pending QR-code diagnostics
- Simplified one-touch access to emission status and control
- Multilevel PIN-based menu access
- Optional LOFA rotary throttle control with “mouse” feature
- Autostart
The CP900’s intuitive autostart mode starts, throttles, and stops engines based on configurable criteria that include switches, transducers, date & time scheduler, and timed run.
