Cable Connections
The NTAI06 has two cable connectors, P1 and P2, where the TU
cable connects. Install a NKAS01 or NKAS11 cable into the
connector on the TU.

Table 2-3. NTAI06 Input Type Descriptions
Input Type
Input Description
Single ended voltage This jumper configuration connects the minus (-) input terminal to I/O COM on the
NTAI06. The IMASI03 measures the voltage at the plus (+) input terminal with
respect to the I/O COM terminal. No connection to the C terminal is necessary.
Differential voltage
This jumper configuration connects the plus (+) and minus (-) inputs directly to
IMASI03 differential input. Channel to channel and channel to system common signal
isolation is achieved for all voltage input types, including high level voltage, millivolts
and thermocouples. No connection to the C terminal is necessary.
System powered
4 - 20 mA
This jumper configuration connects the plus (+) input terminal to 24 VDC
through a fuse on the NTAI06. The minus (-) input terminal connects to a precision
resistor that generates a single ended voltage (1-5 V) for the IMASI03 to measure.
No connection to the C terminal is necessary. INFI 90 must have +24 V (system
power) installed.
External powered
4 - 20 mA
This jumper configuration connects the plus (+) input terminal to one end of a
precision resistor and the minus (-) input to the other end of the same precision
resistor in the NTAI06. An isolated 1-5 V is generated for the IMASI03 to measure.
No connection to the C terminal is necessary.
3-wire RTD
This jumper configuration connects the plus (+) and minus (-) inputs and the COM
input directly to IMASI03 three-wire input. Channel to channel and channel to system
signal isolation is maintained. The two common leads of the RTD element should be
connected across the plus (+) and common (C) terminals, and the third lead should
be connected to the minus (-) terminal.
