Digital Connector
This connector, which is on the rear panel, is for connecting digital I/O,
fault/inhibit, trigger, or output couple signals. The connector accepts
wires sizes from AWG 16 to AWG 28. Refer to Appendix B for more
information about digital connections.
It is good engineering practice to twist or shield all signal wires to and
from the digital connector.

signal ground for convenience only. IT IS NOT A SAFETY GROUND!
Load Connections
Wire Selection
WARNING
Fire Hazard. Select a wire size large enough to carry short-circuit
current without overheating. To satisfy safety requirements, load
wires must be large enough not to overheat when carrying the
maximum short-circuit current of the unit. If there is more than one
load, then any pair of load wires must be capable of safely carrying
the full-rated current of the output.
