Caution
•
Before operating PPC4 with external Q-RPTs, check carefully that the
Q-RPT TEST(+) port is connected to the PPC4 TEST(+) port. If the
external Q-RPT is NOT connected to the PPC4 TEST(+) port, it will not
measure the pressure generated by PPC4 and PPC4 may reach a
pressure higher than the target pressure before its watchdog function
recognizes that the external RPT is not connected.
