4.4. Power Requirements

The WRC-CANX-XX CAN-Bus Extender subsystem is powered from the 11-25 Vdc provided by

the DeviceNet network. The WRC-CANX consumes 60 mA of current at 25 Vdc, or 1.5 Watts, typical. See
Section 3.

Power is typically taken from the bus on each side and each side (A and B) requires power. Power

applied to the A Side powers the entire unit except the B Side isolated transceiver. If isolation is not
required for your application, then the power line may be jumpered from side A to side B. Care must be
taken that the power supply is capable of handling the entire load on both sides of the CANX.
