General Field Device Connection

Specifications (for N-IO)

GS 32P06K10-01EN

 GENERAL
This General Specifications (GS) provides the hardware specifications of the connection between the N-IO I/O unit
and a field device.

SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
n
l Variation of Signal Connections
The field signal can be connected directly to the pressure clamp terminal or the spring clamp terminal on the base
plate of N-IO I/O unit. It can be also connected to the base plate via a dedicated cable and a terminal board. The
following shows the variation of the signal connections of the base plates for N-IO I/O.

 TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT
l S2BN1D
For the Base Plate with disconnecting terminal (S2BN1D), select either the pressure clamp terminal, spring clamp
terminal, or cable connector to connect the field wiring. For the pressure clamp terminal and the spring clamp terminal,
connect the field wiring directly to the terminal. For a cable connector, connect the field wiring through the analog
digital I/O terminal board (A2BM4). The following figures show the terminal arrangement.
