For information about using an external power supply and other application notes, consult the Axia xNode manual's GPIO section.
Pins 1 thru 5 are Outputs 1-5
Pin 7 - Output Common Return
This is the reference input for active outputs. When an output is active, the corresponding output pin is connected to this pin. For a closure to ground (low when active), connect this pin to ground (pin 8)

Pin 8 - 0V (GND) Source
Ground or negative connection for the internal +5V DC source (pin 9)
Pin 9 - +5V DC Power Source
This pin provides 100mA of current for logic.
Pin 10 - Input Common
This is the reference for the input triggers. When an input is idle, it is the same value as this pin. For normally high active low inputs, connect this pin to the 5V Power source.
