IC Gateway Function

The IC  acts as a gateway module by receiving information in one format and transmitting it to other modules using another format. For example, the IC  receives the vehicle speed data from the PCM over the HS-CAN  , converts the data into a MS-CAN message and sends (gateways) the message to other network modules such as the HVAC module, the Audio Control Module (ACM) and the SJB  . This enables network communication between modules that do not communicate using the same network (HS-CAN  or MS-CAN  ).
