Looking to output CAN data

Hi- Is there a webinar or instructions somewhere on setting up the J1939 communication settings to OUTPUT all of the signals that the C185 is reading?

The C185 will not easily support the J1939 protocol, but it is able to transmit information over the CAN bus that you may be able to read with other devices.

If J1939 is a requirement, I think you might be able to manually create the necessary packets - how much do you know about J1939?

I would actually prefer not to use J1939- but looking at Communications in Dash Manager it looked like the only CAN protocol that I could output on.
Let me explain what I am trying to do and see if anyone can help-
I am reading 3 different CAN busses on channels 1-3 and some Analog temp data and I want to output ALL of this on a 4th CAN bus to another 4G enabled datalogger that is already in the car and uploads all of my data to a server.

Where are you located. Perhaps there is a dealer in your area that could help with this project.

If you are looking for examples of transmit templates, I recently posted several in this thread:
