System Diagram — Flatpack2 Power System w/SP2
The generic Smartpack2 (SP2) distributed control system — used in Flatpack2 PS systems
— monitors and controls the whole system, and consists of the Smartpack2 Master (SP2M)
controller, the Smartpack2 Basic (SP2B) controller and the I/O Monitor2 CAN node.
The Smartpack2 Master serves as the local user interface between you and the system. The
system may also be configured via the Controller’s Web-based User Interface (CWUI) on
a standard web browser, and via the PowerSuite PC application. The Smartpack2 Basic
monitors and controls the power system’s internal wiring and supplies the CAN bus with
power. The I/O Monitor2 CAN node implements input and output signals.

CAN Bus Termination
To ensure a correct bus communication and avoid data reflection, you must always
terminate the CAN bus with two 120 resistors, one at each end of the line (60 bus
impedance).
Smartpack2-based DC power systems are shipped from factory with the CAN bus already
terminated with 120 resistors. The CAN bus termination is implemented with a special
RJ45 plug with built-in 120 end-of-line resistor.
Figure 3 Example of CAN bus addressing and termination in a Flatpack2 power system with
Smartpack2-based control system and several monitors connected the CAN bus
When connecting more CAN nodes to the bus, you have to remove the CAN bus
termination plug from one of the CAN bus ends, and plug it in one of the CAN ports on the
last connected CAN node.
CAN Bus Cabling
In addition to the two dedicated wires for communication, the CAN bus multi-wire cable
must integrate wires for the CAN power supply and other signals. In standard industrial
environments, the CAN bus can use standard cabling without shielding or twisted pair
wiring. If very low interference (EMI) is required, a CAT-5 twisted-pair cable is
recommended.
