Xanbus Network Installation

Completing the Daisy Chain Layout

To complete the daisy chain layout:

◆Insert a male terminator into the open network port of the Xanbus-enabled device at each end of the network. See Figure 3-9.

Figure 3-9Completing a Daisy-Chain Layout

CAUTION: Unpredictable device behavior

After connecting the Xanbus-enabled devices and terminating the network, do not plug terminators or other cables into any remaining open network ports on any Xanbus-enabled devices.

Do not connect one end of the network to the other to make a ring.
