Hello all,
This is my first time using this forum and I am looking forward to it!!
I have a question regarding SLC analog input cards.
I have a SLC analog input card, takes -5 to 5 volts input,
but when you unplug the cabling into the card, making all channels open circuited, take a voltmeter to it,
it reads 0.5 volts, the problem is this,
how would you separate a bad cable, or unplugged cabling with a regular 0.5 volt input reading then?
The impedance of the transmitter is 5Kohm.
The card itself, have 8inputs, I am using two of them, would the problem go away if I were to short out the other channels?
Thanks,
George
