Terminating resistor
A terminating resistor is integrated in the interface option above the ETH1 interface. A switch is used to enable
or disable the terminating resistor for the CAN bus interface. The L1 LED status indicator indicates whether the
terminating resistor is switched on or off.

On
The terminating resistor is switched on.
Off
The terminating resistor is switched off.

2.3.5.9.3.2 Shielding
For the interfaces on the 10-pin female connector, the interface shield can be put on pin 2 of the female connector.
A functional ground connection and screw, which can also be used for the cable shields, is located on the interface
plate of the system unit.
2.3.5.9.3.3 LED status indicator - L1
The interface option has 1 integrated LED located above the terminating resistor.

2.3.5.9.3.4 Firmware
In order to ensure the functionality of the interface option, the following firmware version (MTCX) or later must be
installed on the PC:
•
Automation PC 2100: V1.06
•
Panel PC 2100: V1.06
The firmware can be downloaded from the B&R website (
).
