HSC Output Wiring
Basic wiring

 is shown below.
ATTENTION
Mis-wiring the embedded HSC to an AC power source or applying reverse 
polarity causes damage to the embedded HSC.
(1)
Recommended Surge Suppression - The embedded HSC has built-in suppression which is sufficient for most applications, 
however, for high-noise applications, use a 1N4004 diode reverse-wired across the load for transistor outputs switching 
24V DC inductive loads. For additional details, refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, 
Allen-Bradley publication
 1770-4.1.

Sourcing Output - Source describes the current flow between the I/O and the field device. Sourcing output circuits supply 
(source) current to sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the negative side (DC Common) of the field power 
supply are sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the positive side (+V) of the field supply are sourcing field 
devices. Europe: DC sinking input and sourcing output circuits are the commonly used options.
