CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 for Mini Cooper F54 (vehicle-specific)

The CANchecked MFD28 Gen2 replaces the air-vent insert with an integrated data display while still allowing airflow past the screen. Designed for straightforward installation, it’s supplied with a vehicle-specific connection cable and a quickstart guide; illustrated instructions are available for most displays.

Key features

• Vent-integrated fitment: Vehicle-specific bezel retains airflow.
• CAN bus data: In-depth vehicle data readout comparable to manufacturer diagnostic tools.
• Gear display: Via CAN bus or calculated from speed and RPM.
• Touchscreen control: Page navigation via swipe gestures.
• Custom pages: Create your own layouts, add pictures, and use a start animation.
• Inputs: Up to 4 analog inputs plus direct ethanol sensor connection.
• CAN switching: Use the display as a keypad and send custom CAN messages.
• Configurable alarms: Custom warnings (e.g., EGT warning above 900°).
• Logging: Save logs to the internal SD card for later analysis.
• Performance meter: 0–100, 100–200, and 0–200 measurements without additional hardware.
• DTC*: Read and clear faults for engine ECU, transmission, ABS, and all-wheel drive.
• Auto dimming*: Dims with the instrument panel.

*Not available on all protocols.

Views and layout options

• Delivered with predefined sample pages.
• Create custom pages (up to 10 pages).
• 20 widget types (e.g., sensor value, analogue pointer, YT diagram, speed bar, round display, vertical/horizontal bar).
• Drag-and-drop positioning and scalable widgets.
• Fully adjustable widget colours.
• Up to 64 widgets per page.

Display Setup Software (DSS)

CANchecked DSS is used to configure the display, download and review log files with the integrated log viewer, and use the built-in CAN logger. The integrated TRI Editor lets you adjust sensor settings (CAN bus or internal), including min/max warning thresholds and sensor naming.

Data and supported values

The display supports CAN bus data queries (UDS, TP2, manufacturer-specific protocols) as well as K-Line (ISO 9141). It is supplied with predefined TRI/TRX files that define which sensors are queried (varies by engine). If values are missing, they can be added later.

Examples of supported parameters

Temperatures

• Exhaust, coolant, oil, intake, outside, gasoline, DSG temperature

Pressures

• Boost, ambient, fuel pressure (pre-feed pump), rail pressure (actual/target)

Lambda/mixture

• Lambda value, injection time, short-term and long-term lambda adjustment

Other

• RPM, air mass, vehicle speed, throttle angle, total ignition angle, ignition angle retraction per cylinder, N75 timing (%), terminal 30 voltage, torque, gear, diesel-specific values

Scope of delivery

• MFD28 Gen2 data display integrated in the ventilation insert for LHD vehicles
• Vehicle-specific connection cable
• Quickstart guide
• USB data cable
• SD card (pre-installed in the display)
• SD card adapter
• Display foil (anti-reflection)

Connection and expansion

Four analog inputs support linear 0–5V and NTC sensors. CANchecked sensors are available in the TRI/TRX files by default and only need to be connected:

• AIN1: Temperature sensor (NTC01)
• AIN2: Type K exhaust gas temperature converter (TCC01)
• AIN3: Pressure sensor 0–10 bar (FLP01)
• AIN4: Boost pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (BST01)

You can use the pre-assembled AIN wiring harness for connection. An external shift light with eight LEDs can also be connected; flashing colours, shift limits, and colours are configured directly on the display.

An ethanol sensor connects directly to the display; a 10K pull-up resistor between 5V and the signal is required to view and log ethanol content and temperature.

Advanced functions

Math-Channels allow sensor calculations, and the User-Table enables additional sensors using 2D or 3D maps.
