Caution For Zone 2 applications, install a protection device between the RS485/RS422 signal cables and the NI 9871 RJ-50 jacks (ports 1–4). The device must prevent the RS485/RS422 signal-to-signal or signal-to-COM voltage from exceeding 23 V if there is a transient overvoltage condition. Caution For Zone 2 applications, install a protection device between the external power supply and the NI 9871 V and COM pins. The device must prevent the sup V -to-COM voltage from exceeding 39 V if the

Special Conditions for Marine Applications Some modules are Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approved for marine applications. To verify Lloyd’s Register certification, visit ni.com/certification and search for the LR certificate, or look for the Lloyd’s Register mark on the module. Caution To meet radio frequency emission requirements for marine applications, use shielded cables and install the system in a metal enclosure. Suppression ferrites must be installed on power supply inputs near power
