power supplies in a daisy chain by linking the first power supply to the second
using one cable, and then the second to the third using a second cable and the
second CAN port. Continue making connections in this fashion until all the
power supplies are connected. Terminate the bus at both ends, using the unused
CAN ports, with 120 ohm, 1/4 Watt resistors (included) across the CAN HI and
CAN LO signals (Pins 1 and 3). See Table 2.2, "CANbus Pins," on page 36.
