CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 Programmable Touch Screen CanBus Display for VW Golf Mk5 Inc GTI/R32

Note: RHD kit will have display mounted in the right-hand vent.

Your Golf MK5 is missing a data display? We have it - the Golf MK5 display from CANchecked. 

The MF28 has access to all data from the engine control unit. The sensors are queried directly via Can Bus and are displayed on our proven MFD28. The Golf MK5 display comes with a vehicle-specific cover and fits into the interior like an original part. The ventilation remains functional and air flows through the surrounding slots. The sensors are queried via KWP2000. We have optimized the protocol to achieve maximum query speed.

The CANchecked MFD28 is a 2.8" touch screen display which allows you to monitor a huge amount of information from your car's computer. The MFD28 is a CANbus compatible device which is able to read information from most 2008-onwards vehicles by simply plugging into your vehicles OBDII port. CANbus is currently how newer vehicles send and receive data. Think of it as a USB port on a computer; whatever is plugged into a USB port can be opened and accessed from your computer. If your CANbus ECU has sensors plugged in, then in most cases plugging a CANchecked display will read it* (*see below for more information). Don't have a CANbus ECU in your car? No problem! The MFD28 can accept 4 additional analogue inputs including Flex Fuel sensors directly to the gauge. No ECA module required.

The MFD28 however is more than just a gauge. It is also a data logging tool, a CAN sensor hub, a CAN control switch, a shift light and a warning light! Read below for a full list of features. The MFD28 is a compact device and can used in both landscape and portrait orientations which you can then design in the DSS display setup software on your PC or Laptop. The MFD28 can be configured easily to display certain ECU values with a range of pre-made screen designs.

The CANchecked MFD28 is one of the best ways to monitor and enjoy your vehicle.

Vehicle Specific Functions:

• Performance meters: Measure your acceleration times in our performance widget - 0-100, 100-200, 0-200
• Data logging: Log all data onto the internal SD card. No matter whether “on-demand” (start at the touch of a finger) or permanently. All data from your last turn is saved.
• Preset alarms: Ready-made warnings can be easily activated and customized. For example, I get a big warning message when the exhaust gas temperature is over 900 degrees.
• 4 additional analog inputs: Additional temperature and/or pressure sensors can be connected for further monitoring options. e.g. exhaust gas temperature or exhaust back pressure. An ethanol sensor can be connected to one of the digital inputs.
• Read/delete errors: Read errors from the engine control unit in plain text and delete them
• Individual design: No matter whether the individual home screen or the selection from a variety of different widgets. Make the display your ad!
   

Access to all data from the engine control unit

As standard, we supply your display with a ready-made TRI file. All sensors that are queried are defined here.

Temperatures:

• Exhaust gas temperature, engine water temperature, radiator water temperature, oil temperature, intake temperature, outside temperature

Pressures:

• ACTUAL boost pressure, TARGET boost pressure, petrol prefeed pump, ACTUAL rail pressure, TARGET rail pressure

Lambda/mixture

• Lambda ACTUAL, Lambda TARGET, idle run learning value, partial load learning value

Miscellaneous

• Speed, air mass meter (g/s), vehicle speed, throttle valve angle, total ignition angle, ignition angle reduction per cylinder, N75 starting in %

If any values ??are missing, they can be added easily.

Optional Shift Light

The shift light module can be easily pinned to both the MFD28 and MFD32 touch screen displays. Thanks to the simple and individual configuration, it can be individually adapted to your personal wishes and the engine. All colors and respective speeds of the LEDs are completely adjustable. The shift light is already known from motorsport! For example, in Formula 1 it is integrated directly into the steering wheel. Different colored LEDs show the current speed and flash to signal the optimal switching time.

CANchecked took up this concept and designed its own shift light module. The connection is made via an approx. 50cm long cable to the display at the provided three-pin interface.
