3.3 Connecting Inputs
The 10-pin input connector assignments are summarized in Table 1. Table 2 summarizes the universal
input pin assignments for different sensor inputs. All sensor selections are firmware-controlled and no
jumper settings are required when switching from one type of sensor to another. Figure 4 provides
more detail for connecting RTD sensors. Figure 5 shows the connection scheme for process current
input with either internal or external excitation.
Table 1 – 10-Pin Input Connector Wiring Summary.
Analog return signal (analog ground) for sensors
Analog power currently only used for 4-wire RTDs
Only used with controller models
Excitation voltage output referenced to ISO GND
Digital input signal (latch reset), Positive at > 2.5V, ref. to ISO GND
Isolated ground for serial communications, excitation, and digital input
Serial communications receive
Serial communications transmit
