Wiring
The Series SPPM-C uses a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) to offer the highest
possible resolution on the meter. The 4 to 20 mA input is restricted to the 0 to 2.5
resolution voltage range.

The input voltage range is decided by the software based on the range the user enters
in the scaling section. Software uses the smallest voltage range that accomodates
both voltages entered by user.

Current Consumption
The current consumption of the panel meter is voltage dependent.

USB Connection
A USB cable is required for customization of the Series SPPM. When connected to a
PC’s USB port, the display is powered by the PC.

Pin Connection
The DIL IDC socket is an alternative to using the screw terminals. This connection can
also be utilized for data busses and alarm outputs. See Figure 3 for the pin layout.

NOTICE

It and I- share a common ground (ie: not floating or isolated from
each other).

NOTICE

The Series SPPM-C requires a fully floating power supply with
respect to the current loop. This supply should be isolated from the

current loop.
