Hardware version

CANBench Duo v1.1 — Fabricated prototype, sole built unit. V1.1 is electrically identical to the V1.2 schematic refresh but predates the InvenTree symbol-library migration; the schematic component metadata reflects legacy SCADYS naming. Testing and bench validation reference this V1.1 hardware.

Other versions: v1.2 — schematic refresh (next version)

Connector roster for the CANBench Duo enclosure. The unit has a dual-face layout — bench supply on the front, DUT on the back, measurement outputs on the top.

Faceplate layouts

The connectors are laser-etched across three enclosure faces. The drawings below show each face as etched.

Top extrusion — measurement outputs and N2K

CANBench Duo top faceplate — LISN+ / CAN CM / LISN− SMA jacks, CAN Micro-C M12 socket, indicator window, and SCADYS logo

Front faceplate — bench supply (SRC)

CANBench Duo front faceplate — SRC+ (red) and SRC− (black) banana sockets

Back faceplate — device under test (DUT)

CANBench Duo back faceplate — DUT+ (red) and DUT− (black) banana sockets

M12 N2K pinout (J10)

J10 is a female M12 A-coded (Micro-C) receptacle. The diagram shows the pin layout viewed from the front (mating face) of the connector.

NMEA 2000 M12 A-coded female connector — front view: pin 1 Shield, pin 2 NET-S (+V), pin 3 NET-C (−V), pin 4 NET-H (CAN-H), pin 5 NET-L (CAN-L)

Standard NMEA 2000 / DeviceNET Micro-C pinout — any compliant N2K cable will mate correctly.

SMA termination

Three 50 Ω SMA terminators is the minimum kit. Unused SMA ports must be terminated to avoid resonances, standing waves, and false CM signatures during measurement. See User Manual → Common Pitfalls.

Engineering rationale

For the design intent behind the dual-face layout, the source/DUT directionality enforced by the LISN protection chain, and the per-connector mechanical detail (faceplate cutouts, render gallery, render geometry), see Connectors & Mechanical in the Circuit Design section.
