nameplate attached to the main unit are as ordered.

(2)  Packaged Items

Check that the package contains the following items:

 • VJQ8: 1 unit

 • Tag number label: 1 sheet

 • Range label: 1 sheet

 •

Shunt resistor (when optional code “/R□” is specified): 1

GENERAL

This plug-in type pulse to analog converter receives contact 

pulse, voltage pulse, or current pulse from the field and converts 

the signal into isolated DC current or voltage signals.

 • Output-2 can be selected from DC voltage signal, DC current 

signal, communication function (RS-485), or alarm output (2 

relay contacts).

 • Various parameters such as input range can be set and 

modified using a PC (VJ77(sold separately)) or Handy 

Terminal (JHT200(sold separately)) and the like.
