Re: Minimum stub length

Yes Steve is dearly missed. He always had time to answer questions from
everyone. And did so in a very nice way.

Thanks for your replies. No it is not run on clothes hangers ( :)))) ). At
least not yet.  The nodes I have sit on a DIN rail like this

or here http://grodansparadis.com/


and can be connected together either over a RJ-45 or a pin list.  The
shorted cable that can be used here the better for users of course.
