FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Technical Specifications:

Q: What are the configurable voltage output ranges for the 5094-OF8 module?

A: The module supports 0 to 5 Volts, 0 to 10 Volts, and minus 10 to plus 10 Volts ranges.

Wiring & Installation:

Q: What is the maximum inductive load supported when the module is operating in current mode?

A: The maximum inductive load allowed in current output mode is 1 millihenry.

Troubleshooting & Compatibility:

Q: How does the 5094-OF8 module handle short circuits in voltage output mode?

A: Short circuit detection is active in voltage mode, electronically limiting the output to 16 milliamps or less.

Replacement & Upgrades:

Q: Is the 5094-OF8 module isolated between channels or from the system to the field?

A: The module offers basic insulation from the system to the field, but the output channels are non-isolated.
