Installation and Configuration

2

Use DIP switch 6 in block SW1 to designate whether the distance on the display is shown in

feet or meters:

3

RLE’s orange sensing cable has a resistance of 2.8 ohms per foot. Most other sensing cables

have a resistance of 4.0 ohms per foot. If you have questions regarding the resistance of

your cable, please reference the cable’s data sheet. Set DIP switch 7 in block SW1 to the

appropriate resistance-per-foot value.

2.4.3 TB3 and TB4: Input Power and EIA-485

Communications Port

The SeaHawk 10K operates on either 12-24VAC or 12-24VDC power. A power supply is not

included with the SeaHawk 10K.

An isolated power supply must be provided for the SeaHawk 10K.

Do not connect 120/230 VAC to the unit, or damage will occur to the circuitry.

1

Run a power supply to the location of the SeaHawk 10K, or use a DIN rail mountable

power supply and mount it next to the SeaHawk 10K.

2

If you are installing just one SeaHawk 10K, use the two left-most pinouts on either TB3 or

TB4 (marked AC/DC) to connect power to the SeaHawk 10K. Insert the positive and

negative wires of the power supply into either of the pinouts; the SeaHawk 10K’s circuitry

will auto-correct.

If you are installing more than one SeaHawk 10K, use TB3 and TB4 to create a daisy-

chained power connection.

3

If you are installing just one SeaHawk 10K and it will communicate via Modbus to a

Modbus-enabled controller, use the three right-most pinouts on TB3 or TB4 to connect the

SeaHawk 10K to an EIA-485 network.
