Contr olle r Mounting Pr ecaut ions
!
Keep the input circuit wiring as far a s poss i bl e awa y from po wer a nd ground circuits.
Keep the u n i t s i n 1 0 t o 5 0 º C ( 5 0 t o 110º F) with 20% to 90% re l a t ive humidit y (RH ).
The controller may need a warm up period to return to operating temperature ranges when below 10ºC.
To prevent electric sho c k, b e s u r e t o t u r n o f f t h e p o we r sour c e and circuit breaker before wiring.
The po we r requi r e me n t s a r e 1 0 0 t o 2 40 V A C , 5 0 / 6 0 H z , 1 0 V A max. Do not s wit c h p owe r
supplies without first disconnecting the power supply.
F ollow the operating procedures and precautions in the manual to avoid fire, shock, damage to the unit,
or injury. Follow the operations and mounting directions indicated in this manual.
Always create a ground connection where indicated, however do not ground to gas pipes,
water pipes, lighten i n g r o d s, o r oth er pot e n t ia l ly haz a r dous metal objects.
Do not apply power to the unit until all connections have been made.
Do not cov e r t h e venting h o le s in t h e r e a r of t h e u n i t .

There are two types o f e n g in e e r i n g u n it s values us e d i n t h e se t t i n g o f p a r a me t e r s , a b so l u t e
engineering units (AEU) and general eng inee r i n g u n it s ( GEU) . A n A E U p a r a me t e r i s se t u si n g a n
absolute value engineering unit that represents a specific point, such as a specific temperature or
voltage level. An GEU parameter is set using engineering units, however it is a general value, and not
tied to any input or output level.
For example: When establishing input bias, parameter BSP1 sets the specific PV value where bias
point one will occur. This pa r amete r h as a unit de signation of AEU. BS1, the amount of offset at BSP1
is set in engineer in g u n i t s, h o we ver this p a ramete r occurs at wh a t e ver BSP1 is set to, and therefore
does not have an absolute setting related to any input or output, it is just the amount of offset at where
BSP1 occurs. While one is related to an absolute input value, and the other stand alone value, both are
set as engineering units, such as BSP1 set as 100ºC and BS1 set as 3ºC.
