8. INSTALLATION  CHECK LIST 

 
 

Use the Setup, Configuration, and Installation sections as an aid to place the  

 

appropriate switches in the correct positions for the desired monitor function  

 

(stand alone current loop output, stand alone voltage output or PLC  

 system 

monitor). 

 

 

◊ 

 

If the monitor function voltage mode sensor perform the following: 

◊ 

Hardware Jumper DS4 to Comm Disable (Section 4.2., page 13) 

◊ 

Hardware Jumper DS6 to Voltage Mode (Section 4.2., page 13) 

◊ 

Switch DS1-3 to OFF (Section  4.2., page 13) 

◊ 

Connect Power (Section 5.1.1., page 17)  

 

 

◊ 

 

If the monitor function is a system monitor perform the following: 

◊ 

Hardware Jumper  DS4 to Comm Enable (Section 4.3., page 14) 

◊ 

Hardware Jumper h DS6 to Voltage Mode (Section 4.3., page 14) 

◊ 

Switch DS1-3 to OFF (Section  4.3., page 14) 

◊ 

Set DS1-2 for desired Baud Rate (Section 3.1., page 10) 

◊ 

Set Address Switches (Section 3.7., page 11) 

◊ 

Wire for 2 wire or 4 wire communications Section 5.8. or 5.9., page 20) 

◊ 

Connect Power (Section 5.1.1., page 17)  

 

 

◊ 

Calibrate the monitor if required using Section 6. 

 

◊ 

Test the monitor if required using Section 7.
