INPUT SIGNALS

Analog Input Signal
Apply analog input to Pin 4 as shown on page 8.
For 6 Pin Locking Connector, DB9 and DB15 Pin-outs, see pages 58 to 70.

For PROFIBUS Pin-out, see page 56.
Standard 0-5 Vdc is the standard analog input signal. Apply the 0-5 Vdc input

signal to pin 4, with common ground on pin 8.
Opti onal 0-10 Vdc: If specifi ed at ti me of order, a 0-10 Vdc input signal can be

applied to pin 4, with common ground on pin 8.
Opti onal 4-20 mA: If specifi ed at ti me of order, a 4-20 mA input signal can be

applied to pin 4, with common ground on pin 8.

NOTE: This is a current sinking device. The receiving circuit is essenti ally a

250 ohm resistor to ground.

NOTE: 4-20 mA output requires at least 15 Vdc power input.
