1 Introduction
1.1 General description
This manual contains information for the installation and operation of the PM4-BC Monitor. The
PM4 is a general purpose instrument which may be configured to accept inputs of:
Binary (SEt INPt function 5.27 set to bin)
BCD (SEt INPt function 5.27 set to bcd)
Gray code (SEt INPt function 5.27 set to GRAY)
Weighted binary (SEt INPt function 5.27 set to d.inP)
Scaled binary, BCD or Gray code (see USER SCLE function 5.36)
The inputs may be presented in parallel, strobed or addressed form. Twenty input lines plus two
GND lines are available. For BCD inputs, addressed, strobed or up to 4 digit parallel four of these
input lines can be allocated for use as remote decimal point or display hold.
Optional relays, serial communications, analog or digital retransmission may also be provided.
The PM4 series of Panel Mount Monitors are designed for high reliability in industrial applications.
The high brightness LED display provides good visibility even in areas with high ambient light
levels. The high contrast LCD displays provide good visibility and are ideal for battery powered
applications.
Full electrical isolation between power supply, input signals and retransmission output is provided
by the PM4, thereby eliminating grounding and common voltage problems. This isolation feature
makes the PM4 ideal for interfacing to computers, PLCs and other data acquisition devices. Note
that the input signals themselves share a common ground.
Unless otherwise specified at the time of order, your PM4 has been factory set to a standard
configuration. The PM4 series instruments can be configuration and calibrated easily by the user.
Initial changes may require dismantling the instrument to alter PCB links, other changes are made
by push button functions.
1.2 Output options
•1, 3 or 6 optional relays rated 240VAC 5A (resistive load)
•Isolated analog retransmission configurable for 4–20mA, 0–1V or 0–10V
•Isolated RS485 or RS232 serial communications (ASCII or Modbus RTU)
•Isolated Digital output - binary or BCD up to 16 bit, NPN or PNP output types available
•Optional outputs are available in certain combinations only e.g. Extra relay plus RS232

2 Mechanical Installation
Choose a mounting position as far away as possible from sources of electrical noise such as motors,
generators, fluorescent lights, high voltage cables/bus bars etc. An IP65 or IP67 access cover which
may be installed on the panel and surrounds is available as an option to be used when mounting the
instrument in damp/dusty positions. A wall mount case is available, as an option, for situations
in which panel mounting is either not available or not appropriate. A portable carry case is also
available, as an option, for panel mount instruments.
Prepare a panel cut out of 45mm x 92mm +1 mm / – 0 mm (see diagram below). Insert the
instrument into the cut out from the front of the panel. From the rear of the instrument fit the
two mounting brackets into the recess provided (see diagram below). Whilst holding the bracket
in place, tighten the securing screws being careful not to over-tighten, as this may damage the
instrument. Hint: use the elastic band provided to hold the mounting bracket in place whilst
tightening securing screws.

3 Electrical installation
3.1 Electrical installation
The PM4 Panel Meter is designed for continuous operation and no power switch is fitted to the
unit. It is recommended that an external switch and fuse be provided to allow the unit to be
removed for servicing.
The plug in, screw type, terminal blocks allow for power supply wires of up to 2.5mm2to be
fitted. Connect the wires to the appropriate terminals as indicated below. A 22 terminal plug
in data connector is provided which will accept up to 1mm2wires. To insert wires to this data
connector insert a screwdriver blade (max 2.5mm wide) into the square socket adjacent to the
terminal required, push the wire into the terminal and remove the screwdriver blade. The wire will
lock in place. See the “Weighted digital input operation and electrical connections” chapter page
37 for weighted digital input connections.
For connection details of optional outputs refer to the separate ”PM4 Panel Meter Optional Output
Addendum” booklet supplied when options are fitted.
