Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• How do I configure the logic state on the 1771-IGD module?
  The module defaults to positive logic. To set negative logic, adjust the internal jumper position toward the front of the module board.
• What wire size is best for field terminations on the 1771-WH wiring arm?
  Use 14 AWG stranded copper wire with a 60-degree Celsius insulation rating and tighten terminals to 9 lb-inch.
• Global PLC Spare HUB's Insight: How can I prevent phantom voltage readings on TTL inputs?
  Engineers often encounter induced noise in long signal runs. We recommend using Belden 8761 shielded cable and properly grounding the shield drain wire at one end to stabilize input thresholds.
