Hi,
I am having a debate I need an answer to, I have a single (1) 4-20mA output driving 2 separate valves simultaneously
I checked the output rating of the card and the impedance of the actuators and I have plenty of capacity to accomplish this.
I say to wire this all you have to do is double tap the output and send the signal to each valve.(2 wires wired to the + 2 wires to the - each going to the appropriate valve)
My Co-work thinks you have to wire it up in some loop configuration or you will see the signal drop off at the valve.
