Wiring Instructions
WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Internal circuits operate at hazardous voltage levels. Disconnect power supply before installation, maintenance, or wiring.
- Ensure the supply voltage is AC 220 V and properly grounded. Confirm that the power supply matches AC 220 V before connection.
- Connect input signals to the designated terminals according to wiring requirements.
- Connect RS485 communication lines if remote monitoring is required.
- Verify relay wiring before energizing the system.
- Ensure correct polarity and terminal assignment to prevent damage.
- Do not insert or remove wiring while the device is powered.
- Use only properly rated cables and connectors.
- If using the 24 V feed output, ensure the connected load does not exceed the rated capacity.
4. Operation
Basic Operation
- Power on the device after confirming all wiring connections are secure.
- Select the required input channel configuration within the system settings.
- Configure alarm thresholds, relay outputs, and communication parameters as needed.
- Insert a compatible USB storage device to enable data export when required.
Data Reading and Display Modes
Process values can be viewed in various display modes:
- Curve Mode: Displays data trends over time.
- Digital Display Mode: Shows real-time numerical values.
