If the control panel is made of a non-conductive material, it is essential that you connect the chassis ground terminal of the
OIT to a clean earth ground point located close to the panel.
Power Supply Selection
The power supply used to power the OIT should provide an output of +24 VDC 5% measured at the OIT power terminal
block. A 24VDC regulated power supply dedicated to the OIT is required (refer to Appendix A: Specifications for the input
current requirements).
The power cable for the OIT should be 18AWG, 2-conductor wire with a shield drain wire and protective shield (foil or
braid). The shield drain wire must be connected to earth ground at both ends of the cable. Please refer to the Connect the OIT
to Power section for more information.
A power line filter installed at the AC input to the OIT power supply is highly recommended as a safeguard against
conducted RF noise, which is often present on factory power lines. The wires connecting the output of the power line filter to
the power supply should be kept as short as possible to minimize any additional noise pickup. The case of the power line
filter should be connected to a quiet earth ground. The power line filter should have a current rating of at least 1 Amp with
common mode and differential mode attenuation.
