Adapter cable- CAN (i control – x control) 15m – code: 0008899 – Fischer panda

CAN Adapter cable (iControl – xControl) 15 m – code 0008899 – Fischer Panda

The’CAN Adapter cable Fischer Panda is an adapter cable designed for integration and connection between components of the brand's generator control system. Specifically, this item is intended for the connection between the panel/control unit iControl and the communication bus FP-BUS, or for the connection between the iControl system and the x-control of the generator, depending on the system configuration.

This is a CAN network spare/Accessory designed for applications where a longer and tidier wired section is required, typical of technical installations on boats or vehicles. The goal is to facilitate the continuity of the connection between control devices and the generator network, maintaining a dedicated connection consistent with the Fischer Panda architecture.

Product features and details

• Type: adapter cable CAN for Fischer Panda control systems.
• Function: connection between iControl and FP-BUS / interface x-control (depending on the system).
• Length: 15 m.
• Supplier product code (Part Number): 0008899.
• Supplier: FISCHER PANDA.

What is a CAN adapter cable in this context

In the Fischer Panda system, the connection between control units and generator devices can occur via a communication network (bus). This adapter cable CAN is designed to allow interconnection between specific platform elements (such as iControl, FP-BUS and/or x-control), simplifying wiring and making installation or replacement easier during maintenance.

Typical applications

This cable is mainly used in installations where a Fischer Panda generator with iControl control system is present, and where it is necessary to create or restore the connection to the bus or to the interface provided by the generator. The most common applications include:

• Marine systems: connections between generator, control panel, and remote installation points (helm, electrical panel, technical room).
• Vehicle systems: technical installations where the generator and control panel are separated and require a dedicated wired section.
• Maintenance and restoration: replacement of existing damaged/worn wiring or restoration of a CAN connection within the generator network.
• System integrations: in some configurations, it can be used as part of a connection chain to additional interfaces or devices, through specific adapters provided by the installation (when applicable).

If the goal is to integrate the generator with other onboard devices, it is advisable to first check the system architecture, the available connection points, and the correspondence between the components (iControl, FP-BUS, x-control) and the required wiring.

Operational advantages (without compromising the original spare part)

In a technical-professional context, choosing an adapter cable consistent with the manufacturer's system brings benefits especially in terms of system order and intervention management. In particular:

• Spare part identified by Part Number: the code 0008899 allows quick recognition of the component in procurement and maintenance activities.
• Ready-to-use long run: the length from 15 m is useful when devices are not nearby and clean, predictable cable routes are desired.
• “System” setting”: designed for the Fischer Panda ecosystem, it helps maintain wiring aligned with the system logic and the intended control components.
• Support for refit activities: in case of upgrades, panel relocation, or control panel reorganization, having a dedicated cable reduces the need for temporary solutions.

Usage and important notes

Preliminary check before purchase

To correctly select the cable, it is good practice to check:

• the presence and type of system iControl installed;
• the connection point provided on the generator or system (FP-BUS and/or interface x-control);
• the actual laying route and the required length (in this case 15 m).

If in doubt about the correspondence with your system, checking the code 0008899 (and the possible spare parts list of the generator) is the most reliable approach.

Installation

The installation of a network/control cable on generators and onboard systems should be carried out with appropriate technical criteria: protected passages, correct fastening, and respect for separation from power wiring when required by the system. In general, if the intervention involves the generator control system, it is advisable to operate with the system in safe conditions and with qualified personnel.

When to replace it

Replacement may be indicated in case of:

• cable damaged along the run (crushing, abrasions, abnormal bends);
• interruptions or instability of communication attributable to wiring or connections;
• layout changes (panel/control unit relocation) that require a longer run or a different route.

This item is indicated as a dedicated solution when you want to keep the system consistent with the Fischer Panda control system and manage the connection between components in an orderly manner.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the Fischer Panda CAN Adapter cable code 0008899?

It serves as a CAN adapter cable to connect the Fischer Panda control system, particularly between iControl and FP-BUS or between iControl and the interface/x-control, depending on the generator configuration.

What is the length of the cable?

The length indicated for this item is 15 m.

Is this product an original spare part identifiable by code?

It is identified by the supplier product code (Part Number) 0008899, useful for recognizing the component in Fischer Panda spare parts.

In which contexts is this cable most often used?

It is typically used in nautical or vehicle systems where the generator and the control panel/unit are not close and a longer wired section is needed for the control network.

How do I check if it is compatible with my system?

Check that your system uses iControl and that the required connection is to FP-BUS or to the interface/x-control, also verifying the correspondence of Part Number 0008899 with the documentation or spare parts list of the generator.
