Once field wiring is complete, the Relay Contacts and the Isolated/Non-isolated
analog outputs should be configured.
Usi ng J um p er s
Place Jumper(s) over appropriate pins in order to set
Relays Contacts as Open or Closed, and set Isolated or
Non-isolated analog output. See Figure 2 on page 3.
Relay Outputs
The relay outputs have SPDT, form C, normally open/normally closed contacts
rated for 5 Amps @ 30 V dc or 250 V ac. Each channel has two dedicated alarm
relays and a fifth relay is a Common Fault relay.
Current Outputs
A 4-20 mA dc analog current output (isolated/non-isolated) transmits
information to other devices.
Digital Outputs
For digital output, connections to PLC (RTU) are made via terminals
19 and 20 (A and B)for Modbus communications. See page 3 and pages 17-20.
RS 485 Bus Terminator Jumpers (JP9 and JP11) should be placed over jumper pins
for Modbus communication. The user should wire the system according to RS 485
convention and local Electrical codes.
