How to Wire the Series 942

The Series 942 wiring is illustrated by model number option. Check the terminal
designation sticker
on the control and compare your model number to those
shown here and to the model number breakdown in the Appendix of this manual.

Series 942 internal circuits appear "inside" the line drawing of the 942, while
connections and terminal designations appear "outside" the line drawing. All
outputs are referenced to a de-energized state. The final wiring figure is a typical
system example.

When you apply power without sensor inputs on the terminal strip, the Series 942
displays "- - - -" in the Upper display, and Er7 in the Lower display. This error
indicates an open sensor or A/D error. Remove power to the control and connect
the sensor properly, see Page 10. All wiring and fusing must conform to the
National Electric Code and to any locally applicable codes as well.

Sensor Installation Guidelines

We suggest you mount the sensor at a location in your process or system where it
reads an average temperature. Put the sensor as near as possible to the material
or space you want to control. The sensor should be thermally insulated from the
sensor mounting.
