Mounting The Control Processor - Glendinning EEC4 Installation Manual

The Multiple Station Layout illustrates the concept of "daisy-chaining" control stations to reduce the
length of station communication cable runs to the Control Processor.
Terminating resistor installed at
open communications port at
control head.
Failure to install the terminating resistors correctly will result in "poor communication" between the
control station and the Control Processor causing the system to respond erratically. This could
result in loss of property or life. Install terminating resistors and station cables carefully (pp. 3, 7)
REMEMBER:
— Each of the components must be linked by the Station
Communications Cable — the order in which they are
connected is not important.
— At each end of the CANbus network, a terminating
resistor must be installed.
— When complete, all of the CANbus connections on the
CP and the CH must have something connected — either a
station communications cable or a terminating resistor.
1.2 Mount the Control Processor
Follow these steps to install the EEC4 Control Processor:
STEP 1: The Control Processor can be mounted anywhere in the
engine room providing that the Processor is reasonably accessible
