communications
SHLD on FC Bus: Isolated terminal (optional
shield drain connection)
SA PWR on SA Bus: 15 VDC power lead
connection.
Note: The SA PWR terminal on an IOM
expansion module does not supply 15
VDC. The SA bus supervisor supplies 15
VDC to devices on the SA bus requiring
power.
24 VAC Power Supply - Hot
Supplies 20–30 VAC (Nominal 24 VAC)
24 VAC Power Supply - Common
required cable type
FC Bus: 0.6 mm (22 AWG) stranded, 3-wire
twisted, shielded cable required.
SA Bus: 0.6 mm (22 AWG) stranded, 4-wire
(2 twisted-pairs), shielded cable required.
Note: On the SA Bus, the + and - wire
are one twisted pair, and the COM
and SA PWR are the second twisted
pair of wires.
