Resistor circuitry of the encoders
To detect a wire break, it is necessary that enough quiescent current is flowing even when
the encoder contacts are open. Connect a resistor of 25 kΩ to 45 kΩ with 0.25 W to the
encoder contacts for this reason.

Tip: Using the potential jumpers
If you want to supply both load groups with the same potential (non-isolated), use the
potential jumpers supplied with the front connector. This helps you to avoid having to
terminate two wires to one terminal.
Proceed as follows:
1. Connect the 24 V DC supply voltage to terminals 19 and 20.
2. Insert the potential jumpers between terminals 19 and 39 (xL+) and between terminals 20
and 40 (xM).
3. Use the terminals 39 and 40 to distribute the potential to the next module

Note
Ensure that the maximum current load of 8 A per potential jumper is not exceeded.
