Count Inputs
Terminal #2 is the connection for Input A, which is
used for channel A of an encoder input. Terminal #1 is
the connection for Inut B which is used for channel B of
an encoder input. The common connection for both
input A and input B is terminal #3.
Control/Digital Inputs
A contact closure or NPN signal can be used to
activate preconfigured functionality. Terminal #5 is
used for a remote reset function, while terminal #6 is a
security function, that when active, will prohibit entry
into Program Mode. Terminal #8 serves as the
common for both of these inputs.
Auxiliary Power Output
A 9-15 VDC for powering external sensors and
encoders up to 125 mA can be accessed by
connecting the positive supply side of the sensor to
Terminal #4 and the negative side to Terminal #8.
Linear Output
An option board may be installed that provides a 10 bit
linear output signal relative to the Position Value.
Terminal #12 is the positive side of the connection, and
Terminal #10 is the negative side. The default range of
the input is 4-20mA but can be changed via the front
panel to 0-20 mA, 0-10 VDC, 2-10 VDC, 0-5 VDC, or
1-5 VDC.
Power Supply Input
For an AC powered unit, Terminal #13 serves as the line
or hot side connection for AC powered units and as the
positive side for DC powered units. The neutral side for
AC powered units and the negative side for DC powered
units are connected to terminal #14.
Transistor Outputs
Your unit comes standard with 2 NPN outputs which are
activated by each of the alarms. Transistor Output 1,
which is tied to the High Alarm Value, is on Terminal #7.
Transistor Output 2, which is tied to the Low Alarm
Value, is on Terminal #9. Terminal #8 serves as the
common connection for both transistor outputs.
Relay Outputs
Your unit comes standard with a relay output which is
tied to the High Alarm Value. Terminal #19 is NC,
Terminal #20 is common, and Terminal #21 is NO. A
second relay output tied to the Low Alarm Value can be
added as an option at the time of order or later installed
in the field. Terminal #22 is NC, Terminal #23 is common
and Terminal #24 is NO.
Serial Communication
An RS-485 communication board, utilizing ASCII
protocol, can be installed as an option. Terminals #16
and #17 serve as the B and A connections respectively,
while terminal #18 is connected as the common.
Terminals 11 & 15 are not used and must not
be connected!
