Custom CAN Profiles

Profile Builder

Teach your KrispyGauge to read any CAN bus. Describe each value as a channel and the builder checks it against the same rules as the gauge. When it's ready, download the .json file and install it from Advanced → ECU / Protocol → Custom CAN on your gauge's web page. New to this? Start with the format guide.
