Q

What is loop or ring topology?

A

Early networks used a loop or ring topology in which all modules are wired in series.

One major disadvantage of the loop topology is that if one module on the bus loses power or ground the whole network could lose communication

Q

What is star topology?

A

In the star topology master module controls the data bus and the remaining modules are dependent on slave modules

This configuration allows the network to continue to communicate even when power or ground is lost to a module

Q

How does multiplexing reduce the number of conductors used on heavy equipment?

A

by allowing control modules to share data for inputs

17
Q

Which of the following is the measurement of data transfer speed over a network?

a) protocol
b) baud rate
c) data link
d) backbone

A

baud rate

18
Q

What is the baud rate of J1939?

A

250 kb/s

19
Q
Which of the following is the communication language used between control
modules?
a) protocol
b) baud rate
c) data link
d) back bone
A

protocol

20
Q

How do you reduce interference of data communication?

A

by using twisted wire pairs and drain wire shielding

21
Q

Which topology is typical for most modern mobile equipment units?

A

linear

22
Q

Explain serial communication over the CAN network.

A

In serial communication one bit is broadcasted after another in sequential order. Each
controller contains a CAN transceiver (transmitter/receiver) chip that is designed to
follow the CAN protocol. There is no master control device in a CAN network: each
module knows which messages and modules have priority and must wait until the
data bus is idle to start a broadcast.

23
Q
Which of the following terminates and validates the message communicated over a
J1587/J1708 data link?
a) message identifier (MID)
b) parameter identifier (PID)
c) parameter data bytes
d) checksum
A

checksum

24
Q

What is the color code for a J1587/J1708 twisted wire pair?

A

orange and white

25
Q

Which of the following replaces the parameter identifier (PID) in a J1939 message?

a) parameter group number (PGN)
b) suspect parameter number (SPN)
c) failure mode identifier (FMI)
d) arbitration field

A

suspect parameter number (SPN)

26
Q

Which of the following best describes the construction of the J1939-11 heavy cable?

a) unshielded twisted pair
b) shielded twisted pair
c) unshielded twisted quad
d) shielded twisted quad

A

shielded twisted pair

27
Q

What is the drain wire connected to in a shielded twisted pair?

A

battery ground

28
Q

Identify and explain the two (2) reasons why data links are twisted.

A
a) The twist helps provide immunity to magnetic fields. A changing magnetic field
causes voltage (noise) to be induced into both conductors.
b) The twist helps maintain constant capacitance of conductors
29
Q

What is the purpose of the terminating resistors?

A

To minimize the occurrence of standing waves

30
Q

When performing the CAN data wire test, which of the following is the expected
reading of a properly functioning system?

A

1 MΩ – 4 MΩ

31
Q

When performing the terminating resistor test on a J1939 data link, what does a
reading of less than 60 Ω indicate?

A

short

32
Q

Which of the following best describes the construction of the ISO11783 cable?

a) unshielded twisted pair
b) shielded twisted pair
c) unshielded twisted quad
d) shielded twisted quad

A

unshielded twisted quad

33
Q

Explain the two functions the terminating bias circuit performs on the ISO11783 data
link

A

The terminating bias circuit uses dedicated battery power and ground supply along
with the CAN-High and CAN-Low signal to provide electrical bias and termination
to the network, preventing reflections from occurring in the system that would create
interference.

34
Q

Which of the following best describes the function of the ISO11783 tractor
breakaway connector?
a) to allow machine manufacturers to have their machines connect to their
implements only
b) to allow any machine to connect to any implement
c) to allow machine manufacturers proprietary access to implements
d) to decrease the versatility of machine and implement combinations

A

to allow any machine to connect to any implement

35
Q

CAN-high and CAN-low voltages can be checked how?

A

They can be measured between their pin and he battery ground.

36
Q

What is one way to tell if you are using J1939?

A

The J1939 has 9 pins.
