CAN Bus Termination
Minipack systems are shipped from factory with the CAN bus already terminated with 120Ω
resistors.
To ensure a correct bus communication and avoid data reflection, you must always terminate
the CAN bus with two 120Ω resistors, one at each end of the line. The figure shows a
Minipack system, with its controller communicating with the rectifiers via the CAN bus.
Smartpack assigns ID numbers to the rectifiers (software-assigned). The Smartpack’s ID
numbers are assigned by DIP switches on the controller’s side.
Installing PowerSuite ⎯ PC Application
