I have a P1-04ADL-2 (0-10v 4 Port Analog Input), do I just wire the 5v power supply negative to the common (Positives connecting to sensors) and the 24v power supply to the 24v In and Common?

    Do you have a 3 or 4 wire transmitter?

    You will have to provide 24VDC to the module on the 24V and 0V terminals.

    3 Wire, I'm guessing the 24v will act just as a comparator and I could skip the commons? I was calling the 0v "common " in the above post

    So if your transmitter requires 5VDC then you would wire it like the diagram for the 3 wire transmitter. 5VDC + to the transmitter V+ 5VDC V- to the transmitter - and COM terminal on the module. Then the Voltage output transmitter to the V1+ on the module.
