Caution 

In  order to avoid  inadvertent  short  circuits, please ensure  that  the module  is disconnected from  the 
power supply, before you establish connections. 
 
The ground connections on the module (GND

I

) are only for the multifunctional inputs (I1-I8). The ground 

connection for an output (O1-O8) has to be installed externally.  
 
When measuring voltage on voltage supplies whose ground does not correspond to the ground of the 
Mini Module, please select the floating voltage measurement (I1&2 and I3&I4). 
 
Please observe correct polarity for connection and wiring of the device.
