  • Page 6: Electrical Connections

    Since common mode voltages can exist on I/O wiring, adequate wire insulation is recommended with proper wiring practices. As a rule, I/O wires are normally separated from power and network wiring for safety, as well as for low noise pickup. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0880 - 6 - - 6 - http://www.acromag.com...

  • Page 8: Excitation Connections

    Important – End Stops: If this module uses the optionally powered (or redundantly powered) via the DIN rail bus for hazardous location installations (Class I, Division 2 or ATEX Zone 2) it must use two end stops (Acromag 1027-222) to secure the terminal block and module (not shown).

  • Page 9: Usb Connection

    USB energy levels could ignite explosive gases or particles in the air. • USB Signal Isolation is Recommended - You may use Acromag model USB- ISOLATOR to isolate your USB port, or you can optionally use another USB signal isolator that supports USB Full Speed operation (12Mbps).

  • Page 10: Digital Input Connections

    I/O without also connecting I/O Excitation, as the I/O channels each have 10KΩ pull-ups to the excitation rail. Likewise, failure to connect excitation would allow channels to pull each other via their pull-up resistors. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0880 - 10 - - 10 - http://www.acromag.com...
  • Page 11 IMPORTANT: When driving inputs from the field, be sure to turn off the Digital Input channel’s corresponding tandem output to prevent contention between the Connections… module’s output and the field signal.
