CHECKING
1) Terminal wiring: Check that all cables are correctly con-
nected according to the connection diagram.
2)DIPSWsetting:Checkthattheswitchesaresettoap-
propriate positions.
3) Power input voltage: Check voltage across the terminal
11 – 12 with a multimeter.
4) Input:Checkthattheinputsignaliswithin0–100%of
full-scale.
If the potentiometer or its extension wires are broken,
the output goes over 100% (below 0% with downscale
protection) due to burnout function. Confirm the status
indicator LED pattern and check leadwires in such a
case.
5) Output: Check that the load resistance meets the de-
scribed specifications.
I/O RANGING & FINE ADJUSTMENTS
After the DIP SW setting is complete, set up the precise
input and output range using the front control buttons. Be
sure that the front control button function is enabled with
theDIPswitchsetting.
The front LEDs’ colors and blinking patterns help you to
easily identify the transmitter’s status and confirm the set-
up actions in each step of Calibration Modes. Please read
the following explanations referring to “Calibration Flow
Chart”inPage5.
■ PREPARATION (e.g. M3LM-R4/A)
1) MounttheDIP-SW-conguredM3LMontoaDINrail.
2) Connect the M3LM to a potentiometer and a multimeter
andtoaDCpowersourceasshownbelow.
3) Turn the power supply on and wait for 10 minutes.
