Abstract
The Hyundai VESS (detailed in Part 1) is controlled by one of the vehicle’s CAN (controller area network) buses. Messages containing speed, braking, power, and dozens of other parameters are continuously streamed to the bus and can be decoded by a simple microcontroller or single-board computer. The author, an avid railroad enthusiast, sought to replace the standard warning sounds in his Hyundai Kona EV with those of a locomotive. A microcontroller is used to translate CAN messages to DCC, a standard model railroad control protocol, to facilitate the use of an off-the-shelf model railroad sound module. This allows for speed-dependent locomotive sounds to be generated automatically by the electric vehicle.
