Connecting Active Sensors Powered by 24 VAC
The FX16 Master Controller accepts active temperature, pressure, flow,
and humidity sensors providing 0-10 V or current signals powered by
24 VAC.
A second transformer (24 VAC/24 VAC, 3 VA maximum) powering
the analog input is required to maintain the insulation from the
microprocessor.

IMPORTANT: Power the Analog Input with a separate transformer. Using the
power supply of the FX controller may result in a short circuit and therefore
causing the FX16 Master controller to fail.
