DESCRIPTION
+
Loop current source (ref to internal power source)
–
Loop current return (ref to internal power source)
Table 5: Current Loop Interface
The AOB also includes a slider-switch used to configure whether the current-loop
’s power is derived
internally by the scale (the text “
SCALE
” is visible next to the slider) or externally by a loop source (the
text “
LOOP
” is visible next to the
slider).
It’s possible to power multiple loops using a c
ommon supply if the circuit is wired as depicted in Figure
5. Note that 24 VDC is the most common supply rating for this application.

DO NOT CONFIGURE POWER SLIDER-SWITCH FOR
INTERNAL “SCALE” SUPPLY IF AN EXTERNAL “LOOP”
SUPPLY IS ALSO PRESENT. PERMANENT DAMAGE TO
THIS CIRCUIT AND/OR EXTERNAL CIRCUITRY MAY
OCCUR !
