    Closed circuit loop means that the power supply for the sensor must return to the same power group, see the figures below. When measuring current (mA), the sensor connected to 5050 unit’s AI/DI pin must not be powered up before the 5050 control unit is operational. Otherwise the sensor’s input signal is not received correctly.
