10.2 Digital I/O Option
10.2.1 Electrical Connections
It is possible to use control inputs and setpoint outputs if you add an optional digital I/O board (3 inputs and 3
outputs) to the instrument. The electrical connection of the inputs and outputs should be made as shown in Fig.
10.1.

10.2.2 Setup
[1--] Configuration Block
In this block the parameters are located which are being used to set up the digital inputs and outputs.
[13-] Digital Inputs / Outputs
[130 X] Outputs
The outputs operate with respect to the displayed weight value. In the 3
rd
selection the Output 3 operates as Error
and Alarm output.
