Load cells or analog platforms (e.g., from the CAPP series) can be connected.
The supply voltage is protected from short circuit and overload.
The card is fitted with a solder link (factory setting: closed; see Chapter 3.5.5), which should be
opened only when the supply voltage and thus also the sense voltage are reduced to below approx.
+/- 4 VDC.
