Multiplex: Actia System
For all Euro 3, 4 & 5 buses
Highlights
Delegates will learn how Multiplex works and how to identify components and their location. The course aims to simplify Multiplexing, so that Technicians of all levels will understand and be confident in their approach to fault finding and using the technical information provided in our Service Manuals. Multiplexing controls just about everything on the bus!
This Two day course is aimed at competent Technicians involved in the maintenance and repair of Alexander Dennis buses, in particular electrical or diagnostic specialists. Delegates will be encouraged to develop their understanding by participating in practical exercises & discussion throughout the two days.
Delegates will learn to identify Multiplex components, use the on-board diagnostic system via the dash mounted screen control unit (SCU) along with full MultiAid diagnostic program via laptop to improve their fault finding procedures and be taught how to check the CAN line communication network.
