DATA COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE FOR AN AGRICULTURAL VEHICLE

摘要

A data communication interface for an agricultural utility vehicle, particularly an agricultural tractor, having an interface connector that can be connected either to a first data communication network or to a second data communication network by means of an electrically operatable changeover device, wherein the first data communication network is terminated at a line end associated with the interface connector by means of a disconnectable terminating resistor, and having a control unit that connects the interface connector to the first data communication network by means of appropriate operating of the changeover device exclusively when it infers the presence of a control signal that is provided for disconnecting the terminating resistor.
