Examples of input circuits

If it is necessary to design your own circuit to use the remote on-off feature, you can refer to these input circuit diagrams as examples.

There are three types of interfaces for input circuits.

It is the responsibility of the system integrator to make sure that circuit designs obey all applicable national and local codes.

Relay interface

B Computer Numerical Control (CNC)
1 The life of the external relay can be extended if you add a resistor-capacitor series in parallel with the relay contacts. A metalized-polyester capacitor – 0.022 μF 100 V or higher – is a good example.
2 Power ground
3 External relay (Alternating Current (AC) or Direct Current (DC))
