Digital Inputs (Line Monitored)
Figure 5 shows a channel configured to accept line monitored digital input signals.
Figure 5 Digital Inputs (Line Monitored without power)
The configuration shown above enables line monitored digital input devices to be interfaced to the
Trusted
TM
TMR Zone Interface module (or a TMR Digital Input module). The channel is configured by
fitting a 315mA fuse in position B, which provides circuit protection. Power for the field loop is derived
from the dual 24Vdc source. The input signal is returned via a 2A fuse in position A, which acts as a
link.
For inputs without line monitoring components or using zener diodes, to a Zone Interface or Valve
Monitor module, a 1K 0.6W resistor is required in position A. This is because the module requires an
impedance to allow internal testing. Note that this will change the voltages seen by the module.
