Wiring diagram – connecting two single-channel sensors via two channels
Two single-channel sensors that capture the same process value are connected to two
inputs of the F-module for each process signal (1oo2 evaluation).
You can also supply the sensors by means of an external sensor supply.
The figure below shows an example of the pin assignment of the fail-safe digital input
module F-DI 16x24VDC with two-channel connection of two single-channel sensors.
