(i.e. each input with respect to a common return connection). The XT1233‐000 model has 16 Single‐Ended DC current inputs, while the XT1243‐000 model has 16 Single‐Ended DC voltage inputs. An optional current sensor (Acromag model 5020‐350) may be used with the XT1233‐000 to additionally monitor AC currents. - Page 11 ±0.548V to the 16‐bit A/D converter. The normal convention is that positive current is delivered to the channel positive terminal, and returned at the shared return terminal. Refer to the following figures for example DC current input connections to the XT1233‐000 model. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248‐295‐0880 ‐ 10 ‐ http://www.acromag.com...
