Can I branch the CAN to go to two separate places?
So far, we've always been wiring CAN devices in series so that one pair of CAN wires on a device feeds directly into a pair on the next device, and all devices are in series. What would happen if I were to branch the CAN so that the output wires on a device split and I sent the two resultant pairs to different devices? I've read technical documentation on the CAN so I have some ideas, but I'd like to get an opinion from someone who knows about this in detail before I draw a (potentially incorrect) conclusion.
