Grounding the Moxa EDS Series
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from
the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface such as a metal panel.
Suggested Wire Type for Wiring Relay Contact
(RELAY), Digital Input (DI), and Power Inputs
(P1/P2)
The EDS device includes two 4-pins 3.5 mm pin-pitch terminal blocks.
When wiring the relay contact (RELAY), digital input (DI), and power
inputs (P1/P2), we suggest using the cable type AWG 18-24 and the
corresponding pin type cable terminals.
NOTE
The wire must be able to withstand at least 105°C and the
torque value should be 4.5 lb-in (0.51 N-m).
NOTE
We suggest the length of the pin type cable terminal is 8 mm.
In order to tighten the wire properly,
①
use a small flathead
screwdriver to press the push-in button beside each terminal of
the terminal block connector before and during
②
inserting the
wire.
③
Release the screwdriver after the wire has been fully
inserted. Please refer to the diagram below.
Wiring the Relay Contact
The EDS device has one set of relay output. This relay contact uses two
contacts of the terminal block on the EDS’s power module. Refer to the
section for detailed instructions on how to connect the wires to the
terminal block connector, and how to attach the terminal block
connector to the terminal block receptor.
