No information on sink or source on analog units. And there is lso a error in one of the descritions as far as I can understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micapp Posted March 25 Author Report Share Posted March 25 nd this is what i find difficult to understand. Normally I connect my two-wire sensor to + 24V and i.e. input CH1 (on picture), but this looks like the sensor shall connect +24V to CH1 and the low side to 0V ?

And on second picture: Is this the correct use of analog output? Yes* and yes. The manual is clearly wrong. The Ethernet I/O is not a Unitronics-manufactured product, and the manual is not an original complete creation of the Unitronics documentation department. It is a modified re-issue of what the manufacturer supplied. So somebody missed something. Too many late nights and deadlines on the tech writers, I would suspect. Thanks for pointing this out. Flex has already flagged Cara Levy the Documentation Queen so hopefully it gets corrected and updated soon. Joe T. * - that is correct for a two-wire device. Some devices require separate power and generate their own current rather than modulating their supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
