Transmitter Supply Voltage Selection (P+, P-) 

All controllers, including models equipped with the 12-24 VDC power option, are shipped from the factory 
configured to provide 24 VDC power for the transmitter or sensor. 
If the transmitter requires 5 or 10 VDC excitation, the internal jumper J4 must be configured accordingly. 
To access the voltage selection jumper: 
1.  Remove all the connectors. 
2.  Unscrew the back cover. 
3.  Slide the back cover about 1 inch. 
4.  Configure the J4 jumper, located behind the input signal connector, for the desired excitation voltage 

as shown.
