Frequently asked questions
What type of cable should be used for the analog input lines?
Use a 2‑core shielded twisted‑pair cable for the analog input lines and keep it separate from power or high‑voltage cables.
What is the recommended tightening torque for the terminal block screws?
The tightening torque must be between 0.22 and 0.25 N·m.
What is the maximum allowable grounding resistance?
Grounding resistance should be 100 Ω or less for best performance.
