System components
When dimensioning the resistors, the supply voltage of the REGARD 7000
System should be taken into account as neither the Docking Stations nor the
modules perform 24 V voltage regulation. A change of the supply voltage has a
linear effect on the currents. This does not affect the configured switching and static
currents. For further information, see the following chapter: "Port configuration
Digital Input Module", page 100
