Location of CAN Termination Jumper

Temperature and light sensors are controlled as part of a CAN network. For the CAN
network to work correctly, the network must be terminated at both ends of the
network. This is true for a single display, or for multiple displays. The correct
terminations are completed during the building process. However, if the order or
number of displays is changed on-site, the terminating jumper (W1) may need to be
relocated.

Figure 43: Displays with No External Temperature Sensor








In the case of those displays that utilize a temperature sensor, the sensor is internally
terminated. Therefore, only one other termination needs to be made at the output of
the last sign in the network. The most common input location for the temperature
sensor is to the primary display in the network.

Figure 44: Displays with External Temperature Sensor









The terminating jumper is located on the quick connect board on the inside of the
display. Most displays have both an input and an output quick connect board. When
no output board is available, the terminating jumper (W1) will be placed on the input
board of the last display. Therefore, both boards are shown in

Figure 43

and
