The maximum length of the CAN bus depends on the communication speed. For a speed of 250kbps,
which is used on the CAN1 bus (extension modules, ECU), the maximum length is 200m.
The bus must be wired in linear form with termination resistors at both ends. No nodes are allowed except
on the controller terminals.
Shielded cable

must be used, and shielding must be connected to the terminal T01 (Grounding).
External units can be connected on the CAN bus line in any order, but keeping line arrangement (no tails,
no star) is necessary.
The CAN bus must be terminated by 120Ω resistors at both ends using a cable with following parameters:
Cable type Shielded twisted pair
Impedance 120 Ω
Propagation velocity ≥ 75% (delay ≤ 4.4 ns/m)
Wire crosscut ≥ 0.25 mm
2
Attenuation (@1MHz) ≤ 2 dB / 100 m
Note: Communication circuits shall be connected to communication circuits of Listed equipment.
Note: A termination resistor at the CAN (120 Ω) is already implemented on the PCB. For connecting, close
the jumper near the appropriate CAN terminal.
