(1) Vp may vary among various module types.
(2) Rated load is half cable impedance when termination is included.
(3) Peak open circuit voltage contains underdamped ringing due to lack of
termination.
(4) Input voltages between +Vr and -Vr thresholds are ignored.
Bus Errors
Most capacitively- and magnetically-coupled noise shows up as common mode
voltage on the bus. The bus provides a 60 dB common mode rejection ratio. A noise
spike above 1000 volts would be required to corrupt the data. The bus receivers
filter out corrupted data and perform a 6-bit cyclic redundancy check to reject bad
data. Corrupted signals due to noise show up as missed data rather than incorrect
data. The bus continues operating to the maximum extent possible when bus errors
are detected; random bus errors do not shut down communications. Bad data is
rejected by the receiving device and excessive errors are reported to the controller.
