The GPI inputs <strong>and</strong> outputs are electrically isolated from the power <strong>and</strong> ground on<br />

the <strong>FS1</strong> frame. There are two inputs <strong>and</strong> two outputs. Electrical isolation is<br />

provided for up to two pieces of external equipment. The following guidelines apply<br />

to the two GPI inputs <strong>and</strong> outputs:<br />

• Input 1 <strong>and</strong> Output 1 share a common isolated ground on pins 6 & 8 (I/O<br />

Ground 1),<br />

• Input 2 <strong>and</strong> Output 2 share a common isolated ground on pins 7 & 9 (I/O<br />

Ground 2).<br />

• Pin 5, local chassis ground, may only be used as a reference when isolation is<br />

not required.<br />

• Both GPI inputs are internally pulled high through a 10K ohm resistor to an<br />

isolated 5V supply, so that a relay contact closure or any device sinking at least<br />

0.4 mA to ground will register a logic low.<br />

Both GPI outputs are 5V TTL compatible, sourcing up to 6mA <strong>and</strong> sinking up to<br />

4mA each.<br />
