Connecting the Signal Input Cables to the Input Terminal Unit
This section describes how to connect the signal input cables to the input terminal unit.
Input Terminal Unit Types
There are three types of input terminal unit:
• 10-channel input terminal unit (mounted in the GL450) : 10TU
• 20-channel input terminal unit (mounted in the GL450) : 20TU
• 50-channel input terminal unit (used outside the GL450) : 50TU
Note: Each of these input terminal units has been designed for use with the GL450 model only.
CHECKPOINT
These input terminal units are for use with the GL450 model only. Moreover, input terminal units
designed for other models cannot be used with the GL450.

For current in the 4 to 20 mA range,
apply a resistance of 250 Ω and
perform measurement in the 1-5V
range.
