WARNING: wrong wiring of the THUJA network connector
might lead to defects.
WARNING: Since the ground of the network is connected
to the safety ground of the power supply a so called
"ground loop" can be created. Ground loops can affect the
data signal.
NEVER solve a ground loop problem by removing the
controller from the safety ground of the power supply.
