Note The maximum output current can vary from unit to unit. The
minimum guaranteed output current is 6 mA and the maximum
output current is 20 mA. You can connect the digital outputs in
parallel to increase the current drive. When connected in
parallel, the station must be configured so all paralleled outputs
are driven from the same event.
• The output is rated for a maximum of 30 V DC.
• Fused 12 V DC is available at pins 18 and 19.
Install a current-limiting resistor that is appropriate for the external
device.
• If an output is not used, a jumper is not needed to complete a
circuit.
• The outputs are optically isolated.
• The outputs are triggered by the system controller.
Cable specification The cabling information shown assumes a single cable destination
(with an overall shield). In other applications, the cable may have
more than one destination. For these applications an overall shield is
not practical and non-EMI connectors and back shells are permissible.
• 37-contact type D male EMI connector
• Back shell–EMI metallized plastic
• Cable–shielded twisted pairs as required (24 AWG minimum) with
drain wire(s) connected to the metallized backshell at the chassis.
