Power Connectors and Wiring
The FieldDAQ device has two 5-pinL-coded M12 power connectors, power IN and
power OUT. The power connectors provide one voltage line (V), one common line
(C), chassis ground, and two lines for optional auxiliary power, Aux1 and Aux2.
The following figure shows the power circuitry on the FieldDAQ device.
Figure 6. Power Circuitry
IN OUT
Chassis Ground
Internal Circuit
Aux

C
The FieldDAQ device requires an external power source connected between
the V and C terminals, as described in Power Requirements in the FD-11601
Specifications . The FieldDAQ device internally connects the C terminal to the
chassis ground. Recommended NI power supplies are listed in FD-11601 Basic
Information.
The FD-11601 has a maximum device power consumption of 16.0 W. Each FieldDAQ
filters and regulates the supplied power for its tasks.
When FieldDAQ devices are linked together through the power IN and power OUT
connectors, the total current consumption of the chain equals the sum of every
linked FieldDAQ device’s current consumption. The total current cannot exceed 10 A,
and the total supply load of the chain must be less than 300 W.

FD-11601 Feature Usage

You can use the optional auxiliary power lines (Aux1 and Aux2) to draw power for
non-FieldDAQ devices in your network. The FieldDAQ device does not make use of
the auxiliary power itself. If you are connecting power through the auxiliary power
lines, ensure that the total combined current between V Input and Aux power lines
does not exceed 10 A.
Refer to the FD-11601 Specifications for information about the power connectors,
power requirements, and current limits of your FieldDAQ device.
Cap the power connectors when not in use.

2. Connect the negative lead of the primary power source to the C terminal
(pin 3) inside the power connector plug.
3. Connect the Chassis Ground terminal (pin 5) inside the power connector
plug to earth ground. This terminal is internally connected to the C
terminal.
4. (Optional) To power non-FieldDAQ devices through the power network,
connect the leads of an additional auxiliary power source to the Aux1
(pin 4) and Aux2 (pin 2) terminals inside the power connector plug.
5. Assemble the rest of the plug sleeve.
3. Carefully align and connect the cable to the external power source and the
power IN connector on the FieldDAQ device.
4. Turn on the external power source.

The FD-11601 provides channel-to-channel isolation. Input signals on each channel
are conditioned, buered, and then sampled by an ADC. Each AI channel
provides an independent signal path and ADC, enabling you to sample all
channels simultaneously. The FieldDAQ device provides overvoltage protection for
each channel; refer to the FD-11601 Specifications for more information about
overvoltage protection.
