SP 300-BLUE 3½ Digit LED Voltmeter Module
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SP 300-BLUE features a 200mV d.c. measurement range with auto-zero and auto-polarity. Decimal points are
user selectable. The SP 300-BLUE features a negative rail generator which enables the meter to measure a signal
referenced to its own power supply 0V. The blue LED display ensures excellent readability under low light conditions.
The module is easily fitted into the panel, using the fixing clip provided. The module's low cost means it will suit high
and low volume applications. The design of the panel meter's housing and seal ensures splash proofing in many
applications.

SAFETY
To comply with the Low Voltage Directive(LVD 93/68/EEC), input voltages to the module’s pins must not exceed
60Vdc. The usermustensurethat the incorporation of thepanel meter into theuser ’s equipmentconforms tothe
relevant sections of BS EN 61010 (Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measuring, Control and
Laboratory Use).

PIN FUNCTIONS
1. V+ Positive power supply to the meter.
2. 0V 0V power supply connection to the meter.
3. COM Ground for analogue section of A/D converter.
It is actively held at 3.05V (nom) below V+andmust notbe allowed to sink excessive current
m
(>100 A) by, for instance, connecting to a higher voltage.
4. IH Positivemeasuring input.
5. IL Negative measuring input.
6. DP1 Connectto 0V to display DP1 (199.9).
7. DP2 Connectto 0V to display DP2 (19.99).
8. DP3 Connectto 0V to display DP3 (1.999).
Note:
A negative supply is generated internally andmirrors the positive supply. For example: if V+ is +5V, then
the internally generated V- is -5V. When measuring with the input referenced to the same supply rail as
that of the panel meter, thenthelimitations on theinputrange are (V- + 1.5V) to (V+ - 1.5V).
Solder Links:

SCALING
Two resistors Ra and Rb
may be used to alter the
full scale reading (FSR) of
the meter - see table. The
meter will have to be recalibrated by adjusting the
calibration potentiometer
on the rearof the module.

APPLICATIONS
Do not connect more than one meter to the same power supply if the meters cannot use the same signal
ground. Taking anyinput beyond the powersupply rails will damagethe meter.
