FX3U-4DA-ADP (4-channel analog Output)
3.4 Analog Output Line
The analog output type, "voltage output" or "current output", can be selected for each channel.
*1. Use 2-core shielded twisted pair cable for the analog output lines, and separate the analog output
lines from other power lines or inductive lines.
*2. 24V DC service power supply of the FX
3G/FX3U Series PLC can also be used.
*3. Ground the shielded wire at one point on the signal receiving side.
3.5 Grounding
Grounding should be performed as stated below.
• The grounding resistance should be 100Ω or less.
• Independent grounding should be performed for best results.
When independent grounding is not performed, perform "shared grounding" as shown in the following
figure.
→ For details, refer to User’s Manual - Hardware Edition of the PLC Series.
• The grounding wire size should be AWG22 to 20 (0.3 to 0.5 mm
2
).
• The grounding point should be close to the PLC, and all grounding wires should be as short as possible.
