Analog Voltage Output Modules (FP-AO-V5,
FP-AO-V5B, FP-AO-V10, and FP-AO-V10B)
The FP-AO-V5, FP-AO-V5B, FP-AO-V10, and FP-AO-V10B
are dual-channel analog voltage output modules that provide
12-bit-resolution measurements. The power supplies in these
modules can drive loads with up to 20 mA of current; however,
each channel has 10
Ω
output impedance, which adds 10 mV of
error for each milliampere that the channel is required to supply.
Note
The “b” terminals serve as a common reference
point for the two channels, so if your application requires
channel-to-channel isolation, use only one channel of
each module.

Discrete Input Modules (FP-DI-DC,
FP-DI-AC120, and FP-DI-AC240)
The FP-DI-DC, FP-DI-AC120, and FP-DI-AC240 are discrete
input modules. Each module has two isolated channels, so
applications requiring channel-to-channel isolation can use both
channels on each module. Each module has two green indicator
LEDs, one for each channel, to indicate whether the channel is in
the ON or the OFF state. A channel is in the ON state when a
voltage above the threshold is present between the “a” and “b”
terminals. Because each channel of the DC input modules is
