8.2 Troubleshooting for Output Circuit
(3) A load momentarily turns on when powering on the external power supply.
Case
Cause
An incorrect output occurs due to floating capacitance(C) between collector and emitter of photocoupler.
When a high sensitivity load (such as solid state relay) is used, this incorrect output may occur.
When the rise time of voltage of the external power supply is 10ms or less, current (Ic) flows to gate of transistor (Tr1) of next stage due to
floating capacitance (C) between collector and emitter of photocoupler. Then, output Y0 turns on for approx. 100µs.
Action
Action 1: Check that the rise time of the external power supply is 10ms or more. And then, install a switch (SW1) for turning on or off
external power supply to the primary side of it.
Action 2: When installing the SW1 to the secondary side of it is required, make the rise time to 10ms or more and connect a capacitor and
resistor as shown below.
For the following source output modules, take Action 1 on the above due to no effect of Action 2 by the characteristics of the external power
supply circuit.
