Power Connections
Power connections are made to a two-terminal
connector labeled POWER. The meter will operate
regardless of DC polarity connection. The + and -
symbols are only a suggested wiring convention.
There are separate models for low voltage and high
voltage power. See
for details.

Signal Connections
Signal connections are made to a nine-terminal
connector labeled SIGNAL. The COM (common)
terminals are the return for the 4-20 mA and the
10 V input signals. The two COM terminals connect
to the same common return and are not isolated.
Current (mA) Connections
The following figures show examples of current
connections.
There are no switches or jumpers to set up for current
and voltage inputs. Setup and programming is
performed through the programming buttons or
MeterView Pro software.

The current input is protected against current
overload by an internal resettable fuse. The display
may or may not show a fault condition depending on
the nature of the overload.
The fuse limits the current to a safe level when it
detects a fault condition, and automatically resets
itself when the fault condition is removed.
Voltage (V) Connections
The following figures show examples of voltage
connections.
There are no switches or jumpers to set up for voltage
inputs. Setup and programming is performed through
the programming buttons or MeterView Pro software.
