I/O Configuration and Wiring 49
AIDIPI_06 is configured as a current input and is shown connected to an external current
source.
Pin 5 is the ISO_GND connection for AIDIPIs 1 through 4; Pin 10 is the ISO_GND
connection for AIDIPIs 5 through 8. Pins 5 and 10 are internally connected together.
Unconnected analog inputs report an alarm condition.

ternatively, you can use loop power as shown in Figure 3-2. In the figure, AIDIPI_08 is
shown connected to an external current source.
The current source is powered by the 24V loop supply which can power up to 8 field
devices (4-20mA or 1-5V). To create the correct ground reference, connect the 24V loop
GND (pin 20) externally to ISO_GND (in this case pin 10).
