Calculate On/Off Condition for Resistor Values

If a threshold value is set and we wanted to figure out which resistors to use, we

can follow these examples.

On Condition

For an on condition, use the following formulas.

In this case, the module load is 5.1 kand the supply voltage is assumed to be

24V DC. So, for this example, use

Figure 77

and choose 13V DC, because it is a

value within the range in the threshold tables.
