Signal Cable Connection Methods
For saving the wiring space or for standardizing the instrumentation style, the following meth-
ods can be applied.
•
Direct connection using pressure clamp terminals
When connecting field device signal cables directly to the I/O modules, use pressure
clamp terminal blocks.
•
Connector connection using signal cables via terminal boards
When connecting field devices to I/O modules via terminal boards, signal cable interface
adapters are required.
•
Connection via MIL connectors
Use MIL cables (prepared by user) to connect to I/O modules directly.
In the following figure, the parts within the dotted line are provided by Yokogawa.
