Voltage Input Range Selection

See table below (voltage inputs) and on the next page (current 

inputs) to select I/O ranges for your application. It is generally 

easier to select ranges before installation.
The module side label lists common ranges. See the model/

serial number label for module information, options, or if a 

custom range was specified.
It may also be possible to use the next highest setting and trim 

the output signal with the zero and span potentiometers. 
Switch A:  Set to "V" for voltage input

Switch B:  Input range 

Switch C:  Input range 

Switch D:  Output range 

Switch E:  Set to "V" for voltage output or "I" for current  

 output
Note that when using a current shunt input, it measures a mV 

drop across a fixed resistance, typically 50 mV, 75 mV or 100 

mV. The correct input setting would be the appropriate mV 

range for the shunt.

Current Input Range Selection

See table below to select I/O ranges when using a current 

input. It is generally easier to select ranges before installation.
See the model/serial number label for module information, 

options, or if a custom range was specified.
The module side label lists common ranges.
It may also be possible to use the next highest setting and trim 

the output signal with the zero and span potentiometers. 

Switch A:  Set to "I" for current input
Switch B:  Input range 

Switch C:  Input range 

Switch D:  Output range 

Switch E:  Set to "V" for voltage output or "I" for current  

 output 

Voltage Output

Set switch E to "V" for a voltage output.
If your receiving device (such as a PLC or a display) uses a 

voltage input, use terminals 3 and 4 as shown in the wiring 

diagram.

Current Output

Set switch E to "I" for a current output.
Determine if your receiving device (such as a PLC or a display) 

provides power to the current loop or if the loop must be pow-

ered by the APD module. Typical voltage may be 9-24 VDC at 

your device's input terminals if it provides power to the loop. 
If your device does not power the current loop, the APD can 

provide power using terminals 3 and 4 as shown in the wiring 

diagram.

If it provides power to the loop or an external supply provides 

power to the loop, use terminals 2 and 3 aas shown in the 

wiring diagram.

Module Power

Check model/serial number label for module operating voltage 

to make sure it matches available power.
When using DC power, either polarity is acceptable, but for 

consistency with similar API products, positive (+) can be wired 

to terminal 13 and negative (–) can be wired to terminal 16.
