The AIM2 is factory set as follows, unless otherwise specified: All DIP switches are set to OFF and will not 
produce a proper signal output.  Be sure to set switches to your required input and output ranges before 
powering.  See “SETTING AIM2 INPUT” below.
 
The AIM2 can be field calibrated to your specifications using the “adjustable” setting on the DIP switches.  
See “SETTING AIM2 INPUT” below.

STEP 1) WIRING CONNECTIONS

With the power OFF, make the following connections:

Connect a 24 VAC power supply to the 24VAC terminals of the AIM2.  Connect the input signal common (-) 
to the COM input terminal of the AIM2, and the input signal positive (+) to the IN input terminal of the 
AIM2.

Connect the output signal common (COM) and the output signal positive (OUT) to their respective 
terminals on the controlled device.

SETTING AIM2 INPUT

DIP switches determine input ranges.  Jumper block J2 is selectable for input voltage (E), current low 0 - 
1mA (IL), or current high 0 – 20mA (IH) input signal.  A current input can be either sinking or sourcing signal. 
Explanation of “Source” and “Sink”:

Source

 – A signal where the positive (+) modulates and uses the negative (-) as the common. (Most 

prevalent in the industry)

Sink 

– A signal where the negative (-) modulates 

and uses the positive (+) as the common.

FOR PRESET VOLTAGE INPUT RANGES:

  Make 

the following switch settings on input DIP switch.  
Put Jumper J2 in (E) position (or Horz.) for voltage. 
See 

Table 1

.

FOR PRESET CURRENT INPUT RANGES:

  Make 

the following switch settings on input DIP switch.  
Put Jumper J2 in (IH) position for current. See 

Table 2
