In order to be compliant with FMS (Fleet Management System) standard, truck manufacturers implement a specific gateway ECU which reads the information required by the standard from all the suitable places and thru all the required standard, complying with internal vehicle-brand-specific protocols, and makes all these information available thru a specific CAN bus to which the tachometer device is connected.
