The A-D manuals are usually quite clear, but I find the analog input module wiring example confusing. It might just be because I'm tired though... :oops:

I want to connect a few 3-wire DC powered transmitters (Acromag brand) to an F4-04AD input module. Specifically this combination:

My best guess is the I connect:


Conditioner Analog
Output Module
-------------------------
P --> +24VDC
+ --> V and I
- --> C and 0V


Yes? No? Maybe?... :confused:

You got it, the load and voltage symbol at the plc show it.
P=power in..ie +24vdc
+ = +dc voltage signal to plc
- = dc common
 
Thanks guys. I just wanted to be sure. Now, let's hope someone doesn't step in and disagree... utoh

Any particular reason not to think so?

Only because it's not one of the examples, so I wasn't 100% certain.
