the Network
To verify the resistor connection, disconnect
power and measure the resistance across the
Can_H and Can_L lines (blue and white wires,
respectively). This reading should be
approximately 50-60Ω.
Do not put a terminating resistor on a node with
a non-removable connector. If you do so, you
risk network failure if you remove the node. You
must put the resistor at the end of the trunk line.
The terminating resistor reduces reflections of the communication signals on
the network. Choose your resistor based on the type of cable (round or flat) and
connector (open or sealed) you use.
TR
For round cable:
– the resistor may be sealed when the end node uses a sealed T-port tap
– the resistor may be open when the end node uses an open-style tap
For flat cable:
– the resistor is a snap-on cap for the KwikLink connector base, available
in sealed and unsealed versions
You must attach a terminating resistor of 121Ω, 1%, 1/4W or larger, to each end
of the trunk cable. You must connect these resistors directly across the blue and
white wires of the DeviceNet cable.
If you do not use terminating resistors as described, the
ATTENTION
DeviceNet cable system will not operate properly.
The following terminating resistors provide connection to taps and the trunk
line.
• sealed-style terminating resistors. Male or female connections attach to:
– trunk line ends
– T-Port taps
