.

The pictures of the connections in this manual are always looking the equipment from the
back.
To help in the wiring of the equipment, the description of the terminals is marked on a
label in the rear side of the device..
For the electrical installation it is recommended to use multiple conductor cables with
individual cable sections in the order of 0.25 to 0.5 mm

in order to make it easier to

connect. It is better to maintain the cables with mains voltage (power supply) separated
from the cables with low level signals (4-20 mA, etc.).
To connect the cables, peel the outside insulation to free the inner cables. It is
recommended to put a terminal at the ends of the wires to avoid loose ends.
Then, screw the wires into the corresponding positions in the female aerial connector.
Finally, place each connector with its corresponding male connector on the rear side of
the converter.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to comply with the electrical safety requirements as per EN-
61010-1 (IEC 1010-1), the installation of the equipment must take into account the
