Flow Meter Pulse Input Connections
Flow Meter Pulse Inputs are wired to two-terminal connectors. A square waveform is used
in the illustration, but the input is capable of reading many other types of signals within the
voltage and frequency ranges specified.

Digital Input Connections
Digital Inputs are wired to two-terminal connectors. Normally open switch contacts may be
used as shown in
Figure 8
.
Figure 9
shows a Digital Input using an NPN open collector
transistor output from a live signal. Logic LO or switch closure appearing across the
terminals is interpreted as ON. When using an open collector transistor, a logic HI at the
base (marked "B" in
Figure 9
) will be interpreted as ON.
