(2) Terminating Resistor
Ensure that two terminating resistors are connected to both ends of the network (trunk
line). The terminating resistor should be 121
Ω 1/4 W.
(3) Cable and Branch Tap
The cables and branch taps should meet the DeviceNet specifications.
(4) Communications Power Supply
The communications power supply should be dedicated to DeviceNet.
Do not share power source with the communications power supply and I/O device. *
* Noise due to load on/off may affect DeviceNet communications via the
communications power supply.
(The noise causes remote I/O communication error, Busoff detection, and broken
unit.)
