+Vbattery (Left Pin 7 and Right Pin 1)
The CAN-6 is designed to work in any 12–24VDC nominal (9–36VDC max) powered equipment.
The +Vbattery pins should be connected to the positive terminal of the machine power supply
through an approved Emergency Stop device. Additionally, CAN-6 +Vbattery pins should be
protected by a 30A fast blow fuse. All +Vbattery pins must be connected.
-Vbattery (Left Pin 6 and Right Pin 12)
The -Vbattery connections must be made directly to the negative supply and not to chassis
ground. All -Vbattery pins must be connected.
Machine Stop (Left Pin 12)
In order to ensure maximum safety of the equipment controlled by the CAN-6, a Machine Stop output
is provided. The output can supply a current of up to 2 Amps. In the event of an unsafe condition, such
as loss of communications, the machine stop output will be enabled.

Additionally, make sure that a Machine Stop is provided elsewhere on the equipment in which the
CAN-6 is installed in order to comply with all applicable Machinery Directives.
Digital Outputs (Left Pins 3
–
5, 8
–
11, 12 reserved for Radio Machine Stop)
The left connector has eight pins that are digital outputs with Pin 12 reserved for Machine Stop.
The digital voltage range is as follows: outputs less that 2V are a digital 0; inputs greater than 3V
are a digital 1.
CAN (Left Pins 1 and 2, Right Pins 7 and 8)
There is only one CAN-bus port on the CAN-6 but two pairs of pins for connection so the device
can be wired in series with other CAN devices. The CAN-6 does not have an internal termination
resistor, so if the device is the last device on that end of the CAN-bus, external termination is
required.
Analog Outputs (Right Pins 2–6, 9–12)
The right connector has 8 pins for analog outputs. These outputs deliver a voltage from 0 to 10
VDC.
