In doubt about requirements on cable impedance. For CAN bus drivers there should 120ohm terminator resistor on both ends. RS-485 is a little bit diffent, you most certainly find if you search on internet. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
