6 of J1. The voltage to measure must be referred to the same potential of the supply negative J1-3, GND; it is better to supply the device or the transducer with the same source that supplies Rewind. WARNING! In compliance with the safety rules, you must guarantee a mains insulation not lower than a transformer one, in conformity with the rule IEC61558-2-6 or equal.
