Output Circuit and Connecting Example
When the count value of each channel and the user set value match,
the circuit outputs a matched signal for one shot (1 pulse). The
signal output part uses the open collector method by photocoupler
insulation. As a result, an external power source is needed to run
the board output.

Note!
The board's output transistor does not have a surge voltage
protection circuit. As a result, to run inductive loads (for example,
relays and lamps), install surge voltage protection at the loading
side. See "Appendix C: Surge Voltage" for further information.
