Terminal Block

The HP E1459A includes both the input / interrupt module and a screw-type
standard terminal block. User inputs to the terminal block are to the High
and Low for each channel, +5Volt, Ground, Data Valid (DAV0 - DAV3),
External Trigger (XTRIG0 - XTRIG3), and Interrupt (INTR0 - INTR3) .

Figure 1-9 shows the HP E1459A’s standard screw-type terminal block
connectors and associated channel numbers. Use the guidelines below to
wire connections.

Wiring Guidelines

Be sure the wires make solid connections in the screw terminals.

Maximum terminal wire size is No. 16 AWG. When wiring all

channels, a smaller gauge wire (No. 20 or 22 AWG) is recommended.
Wire ends should be stripped 5 to 6 mm (0.2 to 0.25 in.) and tinned to
prevent single strands from shorting to adjacent terminals.

WARNING

To prevent the spread of fire in the case of a fault, use
flame-rated field wiring whenever the input voltage will exceed
30Vrms, 42Vpeak, or 60Vdc.
