If the device under control requires a 0-10VDC input, a 500 ohm resistor ( or two 250 ohm resistors in series) 
should be shunted across the input terminals of the device under control.    The ADU71 LOOP is then programmed 
to provide 0-20mA to the loop as shown in Figure 5. 
 

CAUTION:    Ensure the resistor is correctly and firmly connected to the device input terminals. If the resistor is 
not correctly connected, or open circuit, the ADU71 will apply 24VDC to the input of the device under control 
when the ADU71 loop current is enabled.    This may damage the input circuitry of the device under control.

Multiple voltage input devices can also be connected to the ADU71 LOOP output provided each is shunted by the 
appropriate resistor as shown in Figure 6.
