Black wire connection

2.5 V

+2.5 V Reference

Reference voltage for use with external setpoint circuit

REN

Remote Enable

0 V = ENABLED

Floating or >3 V = DISABLED  

The onboard switch overrides the external signal.

HSET

(Sensor Voltage)

The actual temperature monitor voltage matches the voltage drop across the 

temperature sensor.  Transfer function is 1 V / V.

SETT

Setpoint Voltage Monitor

The setpoint temperature monitor voltage matches the setpoint voltage at Pin 2 on the 

WTC3243.  Transfer function 1 V / V.

RSET

Remote setpoint

Remote setpoint voltage is subject to DAQ Failsafe Protection Circuit

LIMA

Limit A

Voltage at Pin 3 on the WTC3243

LIMB

Limit B

Voltage at Pin 4 on the WTC3243

COM

Common Ground

Low noise ground reference for monitor signals

Terminal Block 4 (TB4), Output Terminal Block

OUTB
