Installing the Analog Input Module

Ground the drain wire and shield of the Belden No. 8761 or equivalent
cable (Figure 3.5) at one end of the cable only. Twist the drain wire and
shield into a single strand. The best ground for this connection is an I/O
chassis mounting bolt or stud.
Insulate the shield and drain wire at the other end of the cable using
electrical tape.
You may mount a separate terminal near the input module for DC
COMMON and SIGNAL RETURN wires. This terminal should be
mounted as close to the module as possible to minimize the length of
unshielded wire.
Refer to Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1 for
additional information.
