Installing the XM-720 Machine Monitor 25
Connecting a Passive Transducer
The figure below shows the wiring of a passive transducer, such as a coil-based
velocity sensor, to the XM-720 back panel.
IMPORTANT
You may ground the cable shield at either end of the cable.
Do not ground the shield at both ends. Recommended
practice is to ground the cable shield to one of the Chassis
GND terminals on the XM-720 terminal block and not at
the transducer. Any of the Chassis GND terminals on the
XM-720 terminal block provides a grounding point for the
cable shield.
IMPORTANT
The module does not power the sensor. It measures only
the input voltage.
IMPORTANT
Using the XM Serial Configuration Utility, make certain the
IEPE Power parameter is disabled. Refer to Transducer
Parameters on page 44.
IMPORTANT
No jumper is required for buffered outputs on the
XM-120/121/122 terminal block. Remove any jumpers
between terminals 5, 6, 21, and 22 on the
XM-120/121/122 terminal block. Refer to Setting the
Buffer Range for the Transducer on page 20.
