Appendix A: Pinouts
Check the calibration data sheet and pinout for your device.
See
for additional important information about connecting your device to a computer for serial commands. Individual
pinouts available at
. The availability of different output signals depend on the options ordered.

Warning:
Do not connect power to pins 1
through 6, as permanent damage can occur. It
is common to mistake pin 2 (labeled 5.12 Vdc
Output) as the standard 0–5 Vdc analog output
signal. Pin 2 is normally a constant 5.12 Vdc.
