Wiring Isolated Output Power to the NI 8255R Complete the following steps to connect power for the isolated outputs to the NI 8255R. Caution Do not connect the NI 8255R isolated power to a source less than 5 VDC or greater than 30 VDC. Doing so could damage the NI 8255R device. 1. Complete this step if you are using the NI desktop power supply (part number 778794-01). If you are using a power supply other than the NI desktop power supply skip this step and proceed to step 2. a. Disconnect th
