Connecting CAN bus (control current) cables

See diagrams from page 107 if multiple panels have to be connect-
ed.
The CAN bus power supply must always be connected to
12 Volt (≥10 V, ≤16 V). Use the E-Drive MPE1KB key switch as
power supply.
As required by international standards, all neutral (negative)
conductors of the DC system must be connected to one
central point. This prevents not only dangerous situations and
corrosion problems, but also error messages in the CAN bus
system.
