FP-AI-112 and cFP-AI-112

Caution

Cascading power between two modules defeats 

isolation between those modules. Cascading power from 
the network module defeats all isolation between 
modules in the FieldPoint bank.

Measuring Voltage with the [c]FP-AI-112

Figure 3 shows how to connect a voltage source without an 
external power supply to one channel of the [c]FP-AI-112.
