1.4.3.1.2 Connections
Field bus interface
Interface socket
5-pin COMBICON
Transmission standard
ISO 11898, potential-free
Transmission protocol
CANopen (CAN), 1 Mbaud max.
Transfer rate (transmis-
sion rate)
10 kbit/s, 20 kbit/s, 50 kbit/s, 100 kbit/s, 125 kbit/s, 250 kbit/s, 500
kbit/s, 800 kbit/s and 1 Mbit/s,
The CANopen connector has the following pin assignment:
Interface
PIN
Signal
Description
Terminal block
removed
Terminal block

1
CAN_GND
CAN reference potential
2
CAN_L
Bus line, receive/transmit line,
LOW
3
CAN_SHLD
Shield of the bus line
4
CAN_H
Bus line, receive/transmit line,
HIGH
5
NC
Not connected
NOTICE!
Unused connector!
Make sure that the terminal block is always connected to the terminal base or
communication module, even if you do not use the interface.
The maximum possible bus length of a CAN network depends on bit rate (transmission rate)
and cable type. The sum of all bus segments must not exceed the maximum bus length

For CANopen, only bus cables with characteristics as recommended in ISO 11898 are to be
used. The requirements for the bus cables depend on the length of the bus segment. Regarding
this, the following recommendations are given by ISO 11898:
