4.2. Hardware Connections
The following diagram will show the minimum connection to the neoECU-12 in order to configure it and program the CoreMini of the device. Connect to HS CAN 1 of the neoECU-12. You can also use the neoECU 12 programming board from Intrepid, you can purchase the optional board separately https://store.intrepidcs.com/product/neoecu-12-pb.

Termination. Please note the neoECU-12 does not have built-in selectable termination resistors. Therefore, an external resistor (120 ohm) is required on the CAN-H and CAN-L pins as shown below. The device you are connecting to also needs the termination resistor. Most of the Intrepid Control System devices have built-in selectable termination resistors that can be enabled in via the hardware setup for that device. If this option is not available, then add the external resistor as shown below.
