 Installing a Ferrite on the Power Leads

4.

Connect the positive lead of the isolated outputs power source to the V terminal of the
power connector plug and tighten the terminal screw to 0.2 to 0.25 N · m (1.8 to 2.2 lb ·
in.) of torque.

5.

Connect the negative lead of the isolated outputs power source to the C terminal of the
power connector plug and tighten the terminal screw to 0.2 to 0.25 N · m (1.8 to 2.2 lb ·
in.) of torque.

6.

Install the power connector plug into ISO PWR IN on the front panel of the controller and
tighten the connector screws to 0.4 N · m (3.5 lb · in.) of torque.

7.

Turn on the external power source.
