Abstract
A trailer electronic braking system comprising a braking device capable of generating a braking force on a wheel on the trailer. The braking force is applied to brake cylinders and is controllable by a braking ECU, which braking ECU is connected to a standards compliant communication bus on the trailer. The ECU is adapted to receive data inputs from sensors, on the trailer. The system further includes an arrangement to interface to trailer electronics and a communications interface having a 802.11 wireless card adapted to transmit an SSID. The braking system is adapted to transmit a trailer identifier comprising the SSID. The trailer identifier can be paired with a further device previously provided with the trailer identifier. The braking system enables the SSID to be changed to a second SSID when a pre-determined condition is met.
