Ground Mode
Ground mode operation is similar to the bias mode operation. The ground mode is
useful for connecting the same input to multiple channels (output ports) and the
unused input ports simultaneously. And the connections will be kept until the other
input port connection will be changed. The ground mode is especially useful for
settling the potential of the unused input/output paths.
If you assign the input port 12 (AUX Input 12) as the ground port, open the input
port 12. This ground port will be internally connected to the ground when the
ground mode is set to ON.
When the ground mode is ON, the input ground port is connected to all
ground
enabled
input ports (unused ports) and the
ground enabled
output ports that are not
connected to any other input ports. You cannot directly control which output ports
are connected to the input ground port:
•
If another input port is disconnected from a
ground enabled
output port, the
output port is automatically connected to the input ground port.
•
If another input port is connected to a
ground enabled
output port, the output
port is automatically disconnected from the input ground port.
•
Ground disabled
output ports are never connected to the input ground port when
the ground mode is ON.
•
You can independently set the ground port and control the ground mode for each
module when the configuration mode is normal.
When the ground mode is OFF, the input ground port is the same as the other input
ports, so relays can be controlled directly to connect to output ports.
NOTE
Connection rule cannot be specified for the input ground port, which can always be
connected to multiple output ports.
Connection sequence (to connect input ground port to output ports) is always
Break-Before-Make.
Ground mode cannot be set to ON when the bias mode is ON.
The input ground port and a ground enabled input port cannot be assigned to the
same input port.
If the ground input port and a couple port have been assigned to the same input port,
the ground mode and the couple mode cannot be used in parallel.
If a ground enabled input port and a couple port have been assigned to the same
input port, the ground mode and the couple mode cannot be used in parallel.
