8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until you wire the appropriate I/O devices to the

field wiring arm.

9. Connect the drain wire to ground.

10.

Gather all of your wires and neatly bundle them using tie wraps.

11. Label all of your wires with a 5-digit I/O address code at each wire

connection. Chapter 7 describes I/O addressing.

12.

Make sure that the field wiring arm pivots freely from vertical
to horizontal.

13.

Replace the field wiring arm’s terminal cover.

14.

Write terminal numbers on the labels next to the terminal’s status
indicator and on the terminal cover. These notes aid you during
system start-up (chapter 5) and troubleshooting (Chapter 6).

If your application uses many shielded cables connected to one I/O
chassis, then:

provide a ground bus to connect the shielded wires

solder several drain wires together at a field wiring arm so you route

only one drain

When ac power is supplied as a separately derived system through an
isolation or step-down transformer, you can connect the transformer either
as a grounded or an ungrounded ac system.

If you want to connect:

Then:

a grounded ac system

connect one side of the transformer secondary to the

ground bus (Figure 4.1)

an ungrounded ac system

connect one side of each test switch for the groundĆfault

detector lights to the ground bus (Figure 4.2)

Power supplies are designed to give an ac undervoltage signal that shuts
the processor down when ac line voltage drops below a specific value
(Table 4.E). Power supplies give an ac OK signal that turns the processor
on when the line voltage rises above a specific value (Table 4.E). This
shutdown feature helps keep invalid data out of memory.
