Table 1 lists the terminal assignments for the signals associated 
with each channel.

Universal Input Circuit

The universal inputs of the FP-DI-330 consist of bi-directional 
optical isolators with current-limiting circuitry. Each channel has 
two signal inputs, INa and INb, which are interchangeable. When 
a voltage is applied between the INa and INb inputs of a channel, 
signal current flows through the input and turns on the optical 
isolator, registering as an ON condition. The current-limiting 
circuitry limits the amount of current flow to 1.5 mA, even when 
the applied voltage is as high as 250 Vrms.

Each input is functionally isolated from the other inputs and may 
be wired independently, but this is not a safety isolation.

Warning

Do not mix circuits with hazardous voltages 

and human accessible circuits on the same module!
