Negative bus supply voltage 

CAN L 

CAN low bus line 

Shield 

Cable shield, functional ground. 

CAN H 

CAN high bus line 

V+ 

Positive bus supply voltage 

 

For connection of the adaptor to the DeviceNet master, use a standard cable for 
DeviceNet or similar shielded cable with twisted pairs and a connector according to the 
diagram below. The bus supply voltage shall be 11 – 25 VDC.

4. CAN H

1. V-

5. V+

3. Shield 

 

 

For reliable fieldbus function, line termination must be arranged in both ends of the 
transmission line. For a G5 Instrument placed at the end of the line, terminate line by 
placing a 121-ohm resistor between CAN L (pin 2) and CAN H (pin 4). 

For configuration of the adaptor an EDS file is supplied with the instrument that should 
be installed in the master. Note that the EDS file is a generic type supplied by the 
module manufacturer. The file doesn’t contain any reference to the G5 Instrument or to 
BLH Nobel.
