9205 COM best practice

Hi guys,

 

I wonder if you can provide me some picture showing your (in field) installation of 9205 modules (or something similar). I mean showing wires, circuitry etc.

In particular I have doubts about "best practices" in input wiring in RSE configuration. For example, if you have to connect 24 sensors in RSE, how do you wire 24 wires in COM input? Additional terminals? External case? What?

Hi Dindex82,

 

actually there is not a best practice or a common way to do what you are asking for. 

My advice is to use an external case (such as a breadboard) in order to have more references of the COM pin. So you connect the COM to the board and you have the reference of the pin in all the column.

 

I hope my answer will help you.

 

Kind regards.

Hi Dindex82,

 

If you ground all of the sensors to a common ground plane or enclosure at the test site, you could also just run a single wire to the 9205 COM.
