The port connections are as follows:
pin 1: ch+ (+VDC supply voltage)
pin 2: ch- (-VDC supply voltage)
pin 3: test (for service use only)
pin 4: shield
When using 12V loop voltage, the resistance must be less than 90
ohms. An approximate can be calculated by following formula:
Rmax = (V
loop
- 10V)/20mA
You can scale the output to any output range. It is recommended to
have the scaling within the measuring range to get accurate
measurements.
