- | ==== 2.1 Tank sender ==== | ||
- | The two wires coming from the tank sender (not included) can be wired into the two spring loaded terminals on the tank sender adapter. | ||
+ | ==== 2.1 VE.Can Network ==== | ||
+ | Connect the tank sender adapter to the rest of the network using standard straight RJ-45 cable. The adapter has two RJ45 sockets to allow easy daisy chaining. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Place a VE.Can terminator at both ends of the network. The Color Control GX is supplied with two of those terminators. | ||
