Sinking (negative logic) modules, by contrast, switch the ground\/negative side of the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ2: Can I run 12V DC loads on one group and 24V DC loads on the other group?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA2: Yes. The 16 output points are divided into two separate, isolated groups of 8 points, each with its own common connection. This allows you to wire different external supply voltages to each group independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ3: Does the IC693MDL740 require external user power to operate the output points?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA3: Yes. While the module's internal logic is powered by 110 mA from the PLC's 5V DC backplane, the actual field output currents (up to 0.5A per point) must be supplied by an external 12\/24V DC field power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"General Electric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51050828726404,"sku":"IC693MDL740","price":166.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/7454\/7844\/files\/IC693MDL740-2.jpg?v=1785046665","url":"https:\/\/www.etowonauto.com\/vi\/products\/ic693mdl740-ge-fanuc-series-90-30-positive-logic-output","provider":"Etowon Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
