FAQ

• What does "sink" configuration mean?
• This block provides the path to ground (-) for the connected load. It is for sinking current.
• What is the main application?
• It is designed for interfacing with both 2-wire and 3-wire DC sensors and actuators.
• What are the configurable safety features?
• Outputs can be set to a default state or hold their last value on power-up or fault.
