4.15 Connecting Loads/Actuators to Current Outputs
Note
The necessary connecting cables, which result from the potential connection of the
analog output module, are not drawn in the figures shown below.
In other words, you must continue to take note of and implement Section 4.13 with
its generally valid information for connecting loads and actuators.
Abbreviations and mnemonics used in the figures below
The abbreviations and mnemonics used in the figures below have the following
