data cables to be connected directly to the plug. This method allows the bus
connector to be plugged and unplugged at all times without interrupting data
communication between other devices.

Bus Termination
Termination Resistors
In order to minimize cable reflections and ensure a defined signal level on the
data lines, the data transfer cable must be terminated at both ends with a ter-
minating resistor combination. The bus termination diagram is shown on the
left.
The bus terminator connects the two data lines via a 220 ohm resistor which,
in turn, is connected to VP 5Vdc and DGND via two 390 ohm resistors. Pow-
ering the terminator resistor via VP 5V and DGND ensures a defined idle state
potential on the data lines.
To ensure the correct functioning up to the highest baud rate, the bus cable
must be terminated at both its ends.
A missing bus termination can cause errors during data transfer. Problems
can also arise if too many bus terminators are fitted, since each bus termina-
tor represents an electrical load and reduces the signal levels and thus the
signal-to-noise ratio. Too many or missing bus terminators can also cause
intermittent data transfer errors, particularly if the bus segment is operated
close to the specified limits for maximum numbers of devices, maximum bus
segment length and maximum data transfer rate.
Inductors
In addition to the bus termination, additional precautions must be taken to
ensure proper operation at high baud rates, i.e. baud rates of 500 kbit/s and
higher. Due to the capacitive load of the device and the resulting cable reflec-
tions, bus connectors must be provided with built-in series inductors, of 110
mH each, as shown in the figure on the left.
Installing the inductors applies to all devices on the network, and not only to
the devices at both ends of the bus cable.
