POWER AND OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
Power
Primary power is connected to terminals 2 and 3 (labeled VDC- and VDC+).
For best results, the Power should be relatively “clean” and within the specified
variation limits. Drawing power from heavily loaded circuits or from circuits
that also power loads that cycle on and off, should be avoided.
Current Output
Wiring for a current output is connected to terminals 1 (I
OUT
-) and 4 (I
OUT
+
).
DIP switch S2 should be set for the desired full scale output current. (20 mA =
ON; 1 mA = OFF).
Voltage Output
Wiring for a voltage output is connected to terminals 5 (V
OUT
-) and 6
(V
OUT
+
).
Note: Although signals are present at voltage and current outputs at the same
time, only the selected range is in calibration at any one time.
Example: A 0 to 10 VDC output is selected. The voltage level present at the
voltage output terminals is in calibration, but the signal appearing at
the current output terminals does not conform to any of the current
output ranges.
INPUT CONNECTIONS
Current Input
Wiring for a current input is
connected to terminals 10 (I
IN
) and
12 (INPUT COMMON).
Voltage Input
Wiring for a voltage input is
connected to terminal 12 (INPUT
COMMON) and one of the three
available voltage terminals listed
below, depending on maximum
input voltage.
Terminal 7: 1 VDC max.
Terminal 8: 10 VDC max.
Terminal 9: 100 VDC max.

1.5 Apply power to the IAMA.
Solid illumination of Green LED if signal is within the minimum and maximum
limits of the selected input range.
Slow blinking of Red LED if signal decreases below minimum limit of selected input
range.
Rapid blinking of Red LED if signal increases above maximum limit of selected
input range.

SCALING PROCEDURE
The accuracy of the IAMA is dependent on the accuracy of the calibration source and the voltage
or current meter used in the scaling process.
If an out of range (see Table 1 for LED indications) or illegal (full scale less than minimum scale)
scaling is attempted, the factory calibration values will be stored in place of the field values. This
will prohibit erroneous operation of the IAMA. The scaling procedure will have to be repeated.
The final storage of the zero and full scale values to E
2
PROM is not done until the last transition
of the mode/calibration DIP switches (S1-1 or S1-2). Therefore, the scaling can be aborted any time
before the full scale value is saved. This is accomplished by cycling power to the IAMA. The IAMA
will restore the factory or previous field scaling values at power up depending on the setting of the
DIP switches. See Mode Selection for more detailed instructions for selecting factory and field
modes at power up. See Table 2 and 3 for the input and output range DIP switch settings.
