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.

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.

This parameter selects the type of communication protocol to be used.
This parameter sets the communicatio n spee d (baud rate).
The baud rate can be set at 600 to 1920 0 bps (bytes per second).
The default setting is for 9600 bps.
This parameter sets the communicatio n parity.
This can be set to NONE, EVEN, or ODD.
The default setting is NONE.
This parameter sets the communicatio n stop bit.
This can be set as 1 or 2.
The defaul t se t t i n g is 2 .
This parameter sets the communicatio n data length.
This can be set to 7 or 8. The default setting is 8.
This parameter is not d is p la yed whe n t h e c o mmun i ca t i o n p r o t o c o l (COM . P ) i s s e t f o r

This can be set as 1 to 99 pcs address.
Its default setting is 1.
This parameter sets the communicatio n response time.
The RP.TM is the delay t o r e t u rn dat a t o t h e u pper lev el dev ice after processing
commands received from the upper level device.
The setting RP.T M is base d o n t he n u mb e r o f 1 0 ms in t e rva l s t o d e l ay (example: a se t ting

grounding or better with a gr o u nd i n g r e s is t a n ce o f l e ss t han 100 Ω .
Be sure to ground from the grounding terminal to an independent grounding point. (1 point grounding)

Use a no-voltage contact switch such as relay.
The controller supplies the needed voltage (approx . 5 VDC) and current ( approx. 1 mA) to trigger the input.

7.11 Use of an External Relay
Switching Inductive Loads
When using switching in ductive loa d s , t h e u se o f R C n e t wo rks (snubber s) for AC loads or diodes for DC loads is
recommended to prevent disrupting the microprocessor's operation. The suppressors also prolong the life of the
relay contacts. Suppression can be obtained with resistor-capacitor (RC) networks or diodes assembled by the
user or purchased as complete assemblies.
For AC loads, choose R and C as follows:
R: 0.5 to 1 Ω for each volt across the contact
C: 0.5 to 1 μF for each amp through closed contacts
Notes:
1 . Use capacitor s rated f o r 250 VAC.
2. RC networks may affect load release time of solenoid loads. Check to confirm proper operation.
3 . RC networks are availa b l e f r o m P r e c is io n D i g it a l and should be applied to each relay contact switching an
inductive load. Part number: PDX6901.
