Multichannel Installations
Several transmitters can be connected to a single master power supply
as shown in Figure 2-9. In this case, the system may be grounded only
at the negative power supply terminal. In multichannel installations
where several transmitters depend on one power supply and the loss of
all transmitters would cause operational problems, consider a back-up
battery or power supply that cannot be interrupted. The diodes shown
in Figure 2-9 prevent unwanted charging or discharging of the
back-up battery.
