1.3.5 Digital Input Option

Terminals 16 and 17, when this option is fitted, may be used for external selection

of the Security facility) which allows/prevents entry into Program Mode from the

front panel. These terminals may be connected to (a) the voltage-free contacts of

a switch or relay, or (b) a TTL-compatible voltage. With the Security option

configured (see Subsection 3.4), security selection is as follows:

Voltage-free Operation:

Contacts open - Entry into Program Mode

prohibited

Contacts closed - Entry into Program Mode

permitted

TTL-compatible Operation:

>2.0V - Entry into Program Mode

prohibited

<0.8V - Entry into Program Mode

permitted.

NOTE: This option and the Serial Communications option are

mutually exclusive.

1.3.6 Relay Outputs

Relay 1 is a standard feature; it is tied to Alarm 1. Relay 2 is an option; when fitted,

it is tied to Alarm 2. The contacts are rated at 2A resistive @ 120/240V AC.

1.3.7 Linear Output

This option provides a 10-bit linear output signal representing the process

variable. The range of this output is selectable in Configuration Mode (see

Subsection 3.4).

1.3.8 Serial Communications Option

The cable used should be suitable for data transfer at the selected rate (1200,

2400, 4800 or 9600 Baud) over the required distance. Transmitters/receivers

conform to the recommendations in the EIA Standard RS485.

The “A” terminal on the Indicator (Terminal 17) should be connected to the “A”

terminal on the master device; the “B” terminal on the Indicator (Terminal 16)

should be connected to the “B” terminal on the master device; the “Common”

terminal on the Indicator (Terminal 18) should be connected to the “Common”

terminal on the master device.
