8.2 Cautions when connecting external devices
The Touch power supply is non-isolating. Interference or external noise from external
devices due to wiring may cause adverse effects on the internal circuits of the Touch or
external devices.
To prevent such damage, choose a proper solution depending on your system setup.
• Use a separate earth ground from the external noise source device.
• The wire for grounding should be thick and short in order to direct the noise from the
noise source device to the earth ground.
• Use a separate power supply from the external noise source device.
• Insert an isolator on the communication line of the Touch and the non-isolated
communication device (i.e. PLC) to prevent damage.
