Re: CAN Cables

actually, for robotics use, TI recommends 100 ohm resistors, not 120. see the jaguar manual

every document i have read has said to use all 4 connections. if they did not want all for they would have used only 2 pin connections on the jacks (they make them like that as i see computer modems with them all the time). they instead used four. if it was such a bad problem, they would have left them out.


just my personal opinion...
