System Wiring Guidelines

Consider the following when wiring your system:

All module commons (ANLG Com) are connected in the analog
module.

The analog common (ANLG Com) is not connected to earth
ground inside the module.

Channels are not isolated from each other.

For optimum accuracy, limit overall cable impedance by
keeping your cable as short as possible. Locate the I/O system
as close to your sensors or actuators as your application will
permit.

Use Belden 8761, or equivalent, shielded wire.

Under normal conditions, the drain wire and shield junction
must be connected to earth ground via a panel or DIN rail

mounting screw at the analog I/O module end.

(1)

Keep shield

connection to ground as short as possible.

If multiple power supplies are used with analog inputs, the
power supply commons must be connected.

The module does not provide loop power for analog inputs. Use
a Class 2 power supply that matches the input transmitter
specifications.

Differential analog inputs are more immune to noise than
single-ended analog inputs.

Voltage outputs (Vout 0+ and Vout 1+) of the 1769-IF4FXOF2F
module are referenced to ANLG Com. Load resistance for a
voltage output channel must be equal to or greater than 1 k

Ω

.

Current outputs (Iout 0+ and Iout 1+) of the 1769-IF4FXOF2F
module source current that returns to ANLG Com. Load
resistance for a current output channel must remain between 0
and 500

Ω

.

Voltages on Vin+, V/Iin-, and Iin+ terminals of the
1769-IF4FXOF2F module must be within ±10V DC of analog
common (ANLG Com).

(1) In environments where high-frequency noise may be present, it may be necessary to directly ground cable

shields to earth at the module end and via a 0.1 µF capacitor at the sensor end.
