Measuring the receive level
1. Measure the level with a high-resistance, ungrounded voltmeter.
2. Do not connect the ground connector to the housing; otherwise the data traffic could be
disturbed.
3. To meet the EMC requirements, the length of the connected measuring cables must not
exceed 3 m.
The quality of the bus traffic can be estimated based on the receive levels in the following
