Modifying the impedance of the various C-Bus cables
C-Bus standard cables have a characteristic impedance of 110Ω. The driver and
end-of-line resistors are soldered to solder lugs and can be adapted accordingly
with other characteristic impedances (see diagram chapter 6.2.1).
1. Explanation
A cable must be terminated with resistors. The resistance value must correspond
to the impedance of the cable. Each C-Bus user has four end-of-line resistors
(Ri). In addition two driver resistors (Rd) are integrated on the p.c.b. In order that
the resistors can be exchanged easily they are all soldered to solder lugs.

The driver resistors specify the current on the C-Bus. In order that the signal on the
C-Bus always has the same amplitude (1.35Vpp), the following correlation is valid:
Rd = Ri x 3,65
(45Ω < Ri < 200Ω)
