Connecting the Signal Probes 2.2 Connecting the Signal Probes Connect to the Non-Contact CAN Sensor. Connect the SP9200/SP9250 to the SP7001/SP7002 Non-Contact CAN Sensor’s signal probe connector. IMPORTANT • Leave the Signal Probe connected to prevent deterioration of the Signal Probe and Non- Contact CAN Sensor's connector’s contacts and to keep out dirt.
Connecting the Non-Contact CAN Sensor 2.3 Connecting the Non-Contact CAN Sensor Connect the SP7001/SP7002 Non-Contact CAN Sensor’s output connector to the SP7100/SP7150 CAN Interface’s Non-Contact CAN Sensor connector. CAUTION Handle each connector of the product. Do not use tools. Subjecting the connectors to excessive force could damage them.
Example: SP7100 CAN Interface SP7001/SP7002 Non-Contact CAN Sensor ground terminal If connecting the CAN interface’s ground terminal to the ground cannot reduce the noise, connect to the Non-Contact CAN Sensor’s ground terminal to the CAN signal source’s ground or to the body of a vehicle in the vicinity of the CAN signal source (ground connected to the vehicle battery’s...
