+===== CANBUS - A universal layout control system =====
+CAN-GCA module firmware is based on CAN using the industrial [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAN_bus|CAN Bus]].\\

+===== Bus termination =====
+[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAN_bus#Layers|{{http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9e/CAN-Bus_Elektrische_Zweidrahtleitung.svg/800px-CAN-Bus_Elektrische_Zweidrahtleitung.svg.png?400}}]]\\
+The very high noise immunity is achieved by ensuring that the differential impedance of the bus is maintained at a very low level using low value resistors (120 ohms) mounted at each end of the bus. \\
+| On all CAN-GC boards this termination resistor is already mounted and can be activated by setting a jumper. | \\
+ \\
+===== Connection cable =====
+The best suitable cable for connection between all CAN-GCx modules is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_5_cable|CAT-5]] cable, mostly known as CAT-5 Patch cable.\\
+Almost any computershop or DIY Market sells this cable for pretty low prices. (e.g. Reichelt [[http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=2520;|4X2 AWG26/7-10]])

+====Alternative cable====
+| For testing and small layouts. |\\
+Standard full wired male to female **extension** RS232 cables are allowed, but up to a certain limit. (e.g.: Reichelt [[http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=30035;|AK2300]])\\
+It is never experienced how many can be used. A few will not disturb the communication, but it is __not able to conduct the full 3 Amp__ of the CAN-GC1(e).
