possibility for the magnet pen. You can find further information of this 

application in the operating instruction of  PLICSCOM.

The interface converter is connected via the USB interface to a PC. It 

converts signals and protocols of the USB interface into the appropri-

ate signal/protocol of the connected instrument.

The voltage supply is provided via the USB interface of the PC.

Detailed information about the power supply can be found in chapter 

"Technical data".

3.3 Adjustment

The adjustment is carried out via a Windows PC with a parameter 

adjustment software such as PACTware with respective DTM.  There 

are no adjustment elements on the instrument itself.

3.4  Packaging, transport and storage

Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its 

capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test 

based on ISO 4180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environment-

friendly, recyclable cardboard. For special versions, PE foam or PE 

foil is also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised 

recycling companies.

Transport must be carried out in due consideration of the notes on the 

transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause 

damage to the device.

The delivery must be checked for completeness and possible transit 

damage immediately at receipt. Ascertained transit damage or con-

cealed defects must be appropriately dealt with.

Up to the time of installation, the packages must be left closed and 

stored according to the orientation and storage markings on the 

outside.
Unless otherwise indicated, the packages must be stored only under 

the following conditions:

• 

Not in the open

• 

Dry and dust free

• 

Not exposed to corrosive media

• 

Protected against solar radiation

•
