Operation Methods

Setting Ranges and Wiring Connections

Connections

Input

Connect the input between the I1-COM, I2-COM, or I3-COM terminals, according to the input 
current. Malfunctions may occur if the input is connected to unused terminals and the Unit will not 
operate correctly.
For the K8DT-AS3, the I1 terminal is not used. For the K8DT-AS2, the I3 terminal is not used.
If using the OMRON K8AC-CT200L CT, connect to terminals k and l on the K8AC-CT200L. 
(Terminals kt and lt are not used.)

Power Supply

Connect the power supply to terminals A1 and A2.

Outputs

For a relay output, the 

SPDT

 contacts are output on terminals 11, 12, and 14. For a transistor output, 

the NPN output is on terminals 11 and 14.
Do not use the transistor output for control applications. It is designed only to output a signal when 
an error is detected.

DIP Switch Settings

The reset method, drive output method, and operating mode are set using the DIP switch located on 
the front of the Unit.
For the K8DT-AS

@

, SW1 is not used.

Note:

Open the DIP switch cover to set the DIP switch.
Keep the DIP switch cover closed while the power supply to the Relay is ON.
