Alternatively, you can use the CAN-Y port to connect up to 5 CAN bus
external sensors without automatic sensor detection (external CAN).
In order to be able to complete measurements using CAN bus sensors
without automatic sensor detection (External CAN), you must parameterize
the CAN bus sensors in the device accordingly, beforehand, using
CANopen or CAN Generic . Further information on parameterization of
the connection ports is available in Chapter & "Sensors".
INFORMATION
It is not possible to mix operation on one CAN bus using sensors with
automatic sensor detection (Webtec CAN) and external sensors with-
out automatic sensor detection (External CAN).
IMPORTANT
The internal terminating resistor of the CAN-Y is fixed. Do not switch
the device to the bus via a stub.
IMPORTANT
The device must be correspondingly configured before using external
sensors. Further information on adjustment and parameterization of
external sensors is available in Chapter & "Sensors".
