Re: New Control System Presentation
Hey, I have a question for you- do the CAN buses on this year's components have any directionality? The reason I'm asking is that none of the CAN buses have input or output sides specifically labelled- also I've seen that on another team's presentation, they terminated the CAN system in the PDP in adifferent set of ports than on the official wiring diagram.

The information i have leads me to believe that the CAN bus's directionality regarding I/o will not change anything, but I still wanted to make sure.

One last question- if you're not terminating the CAN in the PDP, terminating the signal is a matter of wiring a 180ohm+ resistor into the final socket, correct?
