5.4 Analog Inputs
5.4.1 Current and Voltage – Fig. 5.6
5.4.2 Thermocouple – Fig. 5.6
Use the correct compensating cable between the thermocouple
and the terminals – see Table 5.1 on page 106.
Automatic cold junction compensation (ACJC) is incorporated
but an independent cold (reference) junction may be used.
5.4.3 Resistance Thermometer (RTD) – Fig. 5.6
On applications requiring long leads it is preferable to use a 3-
lead resistance thermometer.
If 2-lead resistance thermometers are used, each input must be
calibrated to take account of the lead resistance.
5.4.4 Transmitter Power Supply – Fig. 5.7
Warning.
When input 'Type' is set to 'Volts' (see Section 4.6.2,
page 80), input signals with voltages greater than 2V
(standard inputs) or 1V (high specification inputs)
must
be connected through an external voltage divider (part
no. GR2000/0375).
Input signals with voltages up to 2V (2000mV –
standard inputs) or 1V (1000mV – high specification
inputs) may be measured without the need for the
voltage divider by setting 'Type' to 'millivolts' – see
Section 4.6.2, page 80.
An external 10
Ω
shunt resistor is required for current
ranges.
To avoid damage to multi-channel instruments, high
common mode voltages up to 500V r.m.s. max. must
be present on all channels, or not at all.
For the standard input card the maximum channel-to-
channel voltage (between any two channels) must not
exceed 35V or permanent damage to the instrument's
input circuitry may occur. For applications requiring
higher levels of isolation refer to the high specification
card.
Note.
The power supply board provides a 24V supply
capable of driving two 2-wire transmitters. Two additional
24V power supplies are provided on the transmitter power
supply module boards, each of which is capable of driving
two 2-wire transmitters.

Warning.
Under no circumstances must the spare input
terminal be linked to the negative.
Note.
Refer also to Fig. 5.5 for terminal numbers.
