Hi,
It is possible to connect to multiple PDM's over the same connection to the CAN Bus. You can only connect to one at a time though.
To do this, you have the UTC connector wired to the CAN Bus (Note, the 0V wire is not needed and does not need to be wired in) and as long as the PDM's are no the same Bus, then you can connect to them by selecting the correct serial number from the list. They can both be powered at this time as well.
