input devices such as sensors, etc., make sure that the power consumption
of the devices does not exceed the ratings of the PC.
DC Input Examples
The following diagrams show the correct way to wire the terminals on the
CPU. When wiring, work carefully to ensure that all terminals are wired cor-
rectly. If an input device is connected to an output point, damage may result.
Check all I/O devices to ensure they meet the specifications (refer to Appen-
dix B Specifications).
The DC inputs in the following diagrams are NPN (positive common). Re-
verse the polarity if PNP (negative common) is used.
Use the CPU’s 24 VDC power supply output to supply power to inputs. If the
maximum output current of 0.3 A is not sufficient, use a separate DC power
supply.
