	Sensors can be connected to and powered by the provided terminals on the 1132. The 1132 will measure the current passing through the attached sensor and convert it to a voltage ranging from 0 to 5V. The adapter board is a non-ratiometric device, so make sure to connect it to a Voltage Input object. If the formula gives a range below 4mA (i.e. a voltage less than 0.9V), then this indicates that the sensor is ''open''. The 1132 board internally produces +15V from the HUB0000 ([{{~~SERVER~~}}~~/?view=comparetable&rel=Analog%20Inputs compatible products]~~) analog voltage. This supply rail is used to power the connected sensor, eliminating the need for other external power supplies. If the 1132 is being used in very electrically noisy environments, place a ferrite bead on the sensor current loop close to where it is attached to the 1132.
