APPENDIX C – I/O SIMULATION
This appendix describes how to simulate inputs and outputs to verify the proper operation of the ROC.
The simulations make use of the various types of I/O modules available for the ROC.
This section contains the following information:

NOTE:
Use a standard screwdriver with a slotted (flat bladed) 1/8-inch width tip when wiring all
terminal blocks.
C.1 Analog Outputs to Analog Inputs
The Analog Output source module simulates a transmitter by feeding a 4 to 20 milliamps current to
either an Analog Input Loop module or an Analog Input Differential module. Figure C-1 and Figure C-2
show wiring connections.
