8.2 Auxiliary
Inputs
Wiring
The auxiliary inputs are configurable for a number of applications including monitoring level and/or
pressure switches. Both inputs have input protection, but the maximum input voltage should be no more
than 6 VDC. YSI recommends that twisted pair wire be used for these connections.
CAUTION: The auxiliary inputs are not isolated. Devices connected must be electrically isolated from
ground and the water.
CAUTION: Observe correct polarity on analog input. Do not apply negative voltage to analog input.
Two snap-on ferrite assemblies, YSI# 655361, are included with the 5200 Monitor. Wires being
connected to the Auxiliary ports need to be routed through the ferrites as shown in Figure 3-9. Failure to
do so could cause catastrophic monitor failure.
Auxiliary inputs can be configured as follows:
Input #1 – Digital (contact open/close w/current source)
Caution: Do not input external voltage.
Input #2 – User Defined (0 to 1.0 VDC, 0 to 5.0 VDC, or 4 to 20 mA selectable; max. 6.0 VDC) 10K
impedance
or
Digital (contact open/close w/current source)
Caution: Do not input external voltage.
NOTE: For proper digital input operation, use low impedance switches and wiring. The total resistance
should not exceed 200 ohms.
