•Figure 4-2 shows the milliamp and pulse output terminals.

•Install twisted-pair, shielded cable, consisting of 20 AWG (0,5 mm²) to 16 AWG (1,5 mm²) wire.

•For basic information on milliamp output wiring, see Section 4.4.1.

•For instructions on connecting the milliamp output to a Bell 202 multidrop network, see Section 4.4.2.

•For instructions on connecting a HART device to the milliamp output, see Section 4.4.3.

•For instructions on pulse output wiring, see Section 4.4.4.

•Terminate output cable shielding at gland or conduit fitting.

•360° termination of shielding is not necessary.

•Do not terminate shield inside wiring compartment.

•The pull-up resistor must be of sufficient value to limit the total loop current to less than 500 ohms. Refer to Section 4.4.4 to determine the pull-up resistor needed.
