Method and apparatus for handling controller area network (CAN) messages in a fuel cell system

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments may provide for the selective enablement and disablement of tags, such as control/process tags, in controller area network (CAN) networks, such as power generation systems, including fuel cell systems connected by a CAN bus. The selective enablement and disablement of tags, such as control/process tags, according to the various embodiments may enable management of CAN traffic such that CAN bandwidth may not be exceeded in CAN networks, such as fuel cell systems connected by a CAN bus.
