CAN Cable CA-009562-nnn
(where nnn specifies cable length in feet)
NOTE #2: The XG-100M mobile radio may be located in the middle of the CAN link.
For a 2-head installation, two CAN cables would connect directly to the two CAN
port connectors on the rear of the radio, and each control head would require a CAN
terminator. When the radio is in the middle of the CAN link, no CAN terminator is
required at the radio. The radio can support up to six (6) control heads.

NOTE #1: CH-100 and CH-721 control heads cannot
be
used together (i.e., mixed) within a radio installation.
NOTE #3: Right-Angle CAN Terminator MACDOS0010 also is available. This CAN
terminator can be used if the physical clearance at the back of the head is
insufficient for CAN Terminator CD-014027-001.
For Available CAN Cable Lengths and Respective Part Numbers, see Table 4-8 on page 31.
Figure 8-11: Typical CAN Link Connections for a Multi-Control Head Installation
8.3.5.2 Make CAN Link Terminations and Cable Connection
Follow this procedure for an installation which has only one control head. For a multi-control head
installation, refer to Figure 8-11 as necessary.
1. Obtain the two (2) CAN terminators, part number CD-014027-001, from the installation kit.
2. Mate one terminator to either one of the two smaller 3-pin CAN port connectors on the rear panel of
the control head. This action makes the CAN termination at the control head-end of the CAN link.
When mating any CAN connection (terminators and cables) to a rear panel connector,
visually align the ¾-moon-shaped keys of the connectors, and then gently push and
turn the outer locking ring of the plug (male) connector clockwise until it stops. A mild
click will be sensed to confirm proper mating. Without visual alignment as a guide, it
is possible with excessive force to mate the CAN connectors improperly. Damage to
the connector(s) may result. Therefore, visual alignment is recommended when mating
CAN connectors.
3. Per the procedure in section 8.2.2.2, the CAN cable was partially installed along with the red wire of
the radio’s DC Power Cable. Continue CAN cable installation by routing it to the area near the rear
of the control head.
4. Mate one end of the CAN cable to the other CAN port connector on the rear panel of the control head.
