The Wireless CAN Bridge provides a sealed micro style connector (labeled “Network”) 
that complies with the physical standards for DeviceNet* connectors.  The CB-500 
requires a tap to interface into the DeviceNet* trunk line.  The pinout for the connector is 
shown below.  Note: The CAN Bridge 500 requires a SELV power supply with power 
output intrinsically limited to under 8 amps at a maximum of 30VDC.  If a protective 
device is used with a power supply that exceeds this requirement it must be rated to trip 
at a current equal to 1000/Vin. Protective devices must be fuses or breakers and must 
be non-adjustable, nonautoreset, electromechanical devices.

The Wireless CAN Bridge provides factory test functions via a sealed micro style 
connector (labeled “Auxiliary”).  This connector is not used during normal operation.
