3.3.1.5. CONNECTING THE STATUS OUTPUTS 
The status outputs report analyzer conditions via optically isolated NPN transistors, 
which sink up to 50 mA of DC current.  These outputs can be used interface with 
devices that accept logic-level digital inputs, such as Programmable Logic Controllers 
(PLCs).  Each status bit is an open collector output that can withstand up to 40 VDC.  
All of the emitters of these transistors are tied together and available at D. 
ATTENTION 
COULD DAMAGE INSTRUMENT AND VOID WARRANTY 
Most PLC’s have internal provisions for limiting the current that the input 
will draw from an external device.  When connecting to a unit that does 
not have this feature, an external dropping resistor must be used to limit 
the current through the transistor output to less than 50 mA. At 50 mA, the 
transistor will drop approximately 1.2V from its collector to emitter. 
The status outputs are accessed via a 12-pin connector on the analyzer’s rear panel 
labeled STATUS (see Figure 3-4).  Pin-outs for this connector are:
