External 24Vdc Power Supply 
 
MX 32 should be powered by either a certified (by CSA/UL 
depending on the country of installation) Class 2 power supply or a 
certified Limited Energy power supply in accordance with CSA 
61010-1-12 or UL 61010-1 or IEC 61010-1 standards (depending 
on the country of installation). 
In this case, connect the 24Vdc power supply to the corresponding terminal 
(Figure 23, A). This terminal is protected by a 4A fuse located below terminal 
tag A.

Grounding 
 
The MX 32 meets EMC and Low Voltage Directives requirements. In order to 
fully comply with the class of protection, it is absolutely necessary to connect 
the ground terminal to the Earth of the site (Figure 24, A). Moreover, the cable 
braids of the digital and analog lines shall also be connected to this ground 
terminal.

Digital lines
 
The cabling of the digital lines connecting the controller to the different 
modules deployed along the lines are the subject of the paragraphs OLCT 
10N Modules, 4- or 8-relay modules, 16-logic input modules, 8-analog input 
modules and 4-analog output modules of this same chapter. It should be 
remembered that this cable comes in 2 twisted pairs of 4 x 0.22 m² minimum, 
type MPI-22A, nominal impedance of 100 Ohms. 
Analog or Wheatstone lines 
For an analog 4-20mA detector connected directly to the MX 32 line, please 
wire the detector as shown below.
