The output is opto-coupled to isolate the DR-
switch from the connected equipment. It
provides an open collector output with floating
collector (+pin) and emitter (-pin).
Each 10way connector provides 4 open
collector pairs as well as an internal +10V DC
supply and ground pins. Do not use the
chassis ground screw which is for cable
shielding and safety earthing only.
The output may be used in many ways to
satisfy a wide range of interfacing applications.
It is important that the installer has a good
working knowledge of open collector and
interfacing circuits. Incorrect application may
result in damage to these outputs.
The internal +10V supply may be used as the
power source for low current applications such
as turning on LEDs, lamps and small relays.
One cable can feed the common supply or
ground to a bank of outputs.
Maximum current drawn from the
+10V supply for all outputs combined must not
exceed 500mA. Care must be taken in
component choice to ensure each operates
within its specified capability.
For higher current or voltage applications an
external DC power supply may be used. This
also provides total isolation between the DR-
switch and external equipment.
Maximum external supply voltage
must not exceed +24V DC. Maximum current
sink through any open collector output must
not exceed 200mA.
A few examples are shown in the diagram
here. For further advice contact Allen & Heath
