Pike F-505 has a different input wiring compared to the other Pike models. The
inputs of Pike F-505 are the same as the inputs of Stingray.
Pike F-505 input block diagram
The inputs can be connected directly up to max. +24 V. If you want to use volt-
ages from +24 V...+36 V you have to place an external resistor of 1.5 k (1/10
watt) in series with your voltage source.
