Hello, I have a question about proper grounding for CAN SHIELD. I am sure other protocols talk about CAN shield, however I suppose my question is specific to J1939/11. Where do you ground the shield to? Lets say I have a very basic CAN network, 3 nodes total. All of which has a CAN SHIELD pin on their boards. Do I connect each one, just one? Every forum I see, it says to ground your shield only one time. And most images I see, show that you ground it directly to battery. However if the CAN SHD pins on my micro controllers are grounded internally.. wouldn't that do the same? The controllers are Danfoss MC012 or MC024 versions. I do not think the API is available online however I have their Plus+1 software which all the APIs are loaded internally. With shielded cable, is there an actual wire I will crimp to my DT04-3S deutcsch 3 pin connector? Or do I literally take the foil wrapping and get it in the pin. Very novice so I apologize for my ignorance. No worries, this project is for training only. This forum has been very educating and I have learned a lot just sitting in the background reading the past year. Thank you for your time! -Cain
