Controls
the Parrot Car Kits
The Parrot MULTICAN uses the existing steering wheel mounted
commands to control your Parrot Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit.
There is no additional visible part to install; the Parrot
MULTICAN only uses the existing car’s steering wheel
control buttons and they will be used both for the car receiver
and the Parrot car kit without any interference. Available
is one MULTICAN kit for Parrot CK3000 Evolution and another
one for Parrot CK3100 LCD.
Large compatibility
The Parrot MULTICAN operates with all kinds of steering wheel
controls and is currently compatible with many car brands.
Full integration
With the Parrot MULTICAN interface, keep controlling the auto-radio
from the steering wheel. And if the steering wheel doesn’t
have enough buttons, the Parrot MULTICAN uses a specific combination
of buttons to compensate for the missing ones. Using the MULTICAN
with the Parrot CK3000 Evolution allows removing the user
interface, and getting a fully invisible Bluetooth hands free
solution!
The CAN technology
The Controller Area Network (CAN) technology is a serial bus
standard, originally developed in the 1980s by Robert Bosch
GmbH, for connecting and interfacing electronic control units.
CAN was specifically designed to be robust in electromagnetically
‘tough’ environments (i.e. cars). Although initially
created for automotive environment, the CAN bus is nowadays
used in many embedded control applications that requires strong
protections against magnetic fields.
