DC Process
The Falcon Series digital indicators are premium quality
1/8 DIN meters for industrial applications. All Falcon units
feature jumper-selectable decimal point (internal and on
the connector for remote decimal point) and display scaling, providing wide application flexibility. In addition, signal
input ranges are easy to change with jumpers on the main
board. The Falcon has a 0.56" bright red LED display for
high visibility.

Compactly designed for applications requiring minimal rear
panel depth, the Falcon fits a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout (92mm x 45mm) and requires less than 3" behind the
panel. A screw terminal connector is a standard feature
for easy wiring of the power supply and signal input connections.

Mounting Requirements
The Falcon series 1/8 DIN indicators require a panel cutout of 1.77"
(45mm) high by 3.62" (92mm) wide. To install the Falcon into a panel cutout, remove the clips from the side of the meter. Slide the meter through
your panel cutout, then slide the mounting clips back on the meter. Press
evenly to ensure a proper fit.
Engineering Label Placement
If replacement of the engineering unit label is required, place the tip of a
ball-point pen into the small hole at the base of the engineering label in
the bezel. Slide the label up until it pops out. Grasp and remove. Slide
the new label half the distance in, then use the ball-point pen to slide it
down into place.

Wiring Diagram

IN HI
IN LO
Input Signal: Connect the signal to be monitored to the IN HI and
IN LO terminals. IN HI is terminal #1, IN LO is terminal #2.
Supply Power: Connect the supply power to terminals #11 and
#12. Note that if AC power is supplied, terminal #11 is for Neutral,
and terminal #12 is for Hot. If DC power is used, terminal #11 is for
-DC, and #12 is for +DC.
Display Hold: This feature allows you to hold the displayed value
indefinitely. A remote switch can be used to make the connection.
To activate the display hold, short terminal blocks #3 and #4 (Hold
Ref and +Ref). This connection must be kept isolated from other
circuitry. To hold multiple units, separate poles of the switch must
be used to maintain the isolation.

Decimal Point Selection
From terminal block: The decimal point can be set from the rear
screw terminal block by connecting the appropriate decimal point
(DP 1, 2, 3, ) to the DP C terminal. The J105 jumper must be in the
D position (see diagram under "From front panel").

From front panel: The decimal point can also be selected by
removing the front bezel from the meter. Move the push-on jumper
J105 across the correct letter.

Before switching the instrument on, make sure the supply voltage matches the power source required of the instrument as
indicated on the hook-up label affixed to the instrument.
Process Range Selection
All Falcon Indicators are configured initially per the customer specifications. Range changes can be accomplished as follows:
Disconnect power from the unit. Remove the unit from the panel.
Remove the front bezel by inserting slotted screwdriver in the vertical
slots on either side of the bezel and then turning to pry the bezel off.
Unscrew the two Phillips head screws at either side of the circuit board.
Finally, push on the green connector assembly in the back of the unit
to slide the main circuit board out from the meter. Change jumpers
according to the chart below.
Note: If a new range is selected, the calibration procedure must also
be performed.
Range J102 J106 JU101 JU102
4-20 mA D P A No
1-5 V not field-selectable *
0-10 V B P V No
* Note: Conversion to or from 1-5V must be done at the factory
or a Simpson Authorized Service Center.
Note: JU101 and JU102 are hard wire jumpers, and are removed by
cutting them. Resoldering the JU jumpers is not recommended. If this is
required, or if a function is to be changed (from volts to current), Simpson
recommends returning the Falcon to the factory or an Authorized Service
Center. After moving the jumpers to the desired location, put the Falcon
back together and install in your panel, or proceed to calibration.
