The current loop requires a voltage source. However that voltage source may come from the
same power supply which powers both the encoder controller and the 4-20mA current
receiver.
The MR340-1 current output has an internal voltage requirement of 7.5V. Thus the maximum
burden including wiring resistance should be less than:
•
R
bmax
= (24V – 7.5V) / 20mA = 825ohm.
•
In practice, the burden resistance should not exceed 500 ohms.
CAUTION
Before connecting a voltage source to the Current output, make sure to
set this parameter to current output. Otherwise the voltage output will
attempt to drive against the applied voltage source.
Voltage Output Connection
The current output of the MR340-1 controller is an isolated, loop-powered current source. The
user must provide in line power source for proper operation.
