5.2.3 Connecting the CAN Fieldbus
The assignment of the fieldbus connectors (D-Sub 9 and RJ45) is in accordance to CiA 303-1.
The shield of the CAN connector is connected to CAN ground via a 1 MΩ resistor and a 10 nF
capacitor. USB_shield is connected to CAN_shield via a 4.7 nF capacitor. The shields of the CAN
connectors of the variants professional and automotive are connected directly together.
For non galvanic decoupled interfaces, fieldbus ground and computer ground are at the same
potential.
For best noise immunity connect the shields of the CAN cables directly to the device ground.
