HOWTOTRIGGERTHEMETER

TheNHMmaybeactivatedinanumberofdifferentways:powerinput,digitalinputandanaloginput.

1.Powerinput

InthesimplestsetuptheNHMmaybeactivatedwheneverpowerisappliedtotheunit.Inthiscase,iftheNHMison,itiscounting.A

voltagethresholdisprovidedsotheNHMmaystopcountingaspowerislosttopreventmemorycorruption.Inthisway,youonlyneedto

connecttheNHMtothesamepowersourceoftheequipmentyouwishtocollectrunningdata,nootherwiringrequired.

2.Digitalinput

Youmayalsouseoneoftheinputstoturncountingonandoff.TherearetwodigitalinputsintheNHM.ThedigitalinputsallowNHMto

detectanexternalon/offstateofasensor.Whenyouusethedigitalinputstotriggerthemeter,youwillneedtoenablethedigitalinputs

first.Forinstructionsonhowtoenablethedigitalinputsfromthewebpage,pleasechecktheConfiguringtheDigitalInputsectionon

Page10oftheiTrixxNHMUserManual.

Therearetwomodesofoperationforthedigitalinputs,PULLUP(PU)andISOLATED(ISO).TheNHMissetinISObydefault.Thismodeis

selectedbytheswitchontheNHMmarkedISOandPUforISOLATEDorPULLUPrespectively.

PuttheswitchupforISOanddownforPU.WheninPUmode,theinputsareworkingasadrycontactsothataswitchmaybeused.The

ISOmodeallowsyoutodirectlydrivetheNHM'soptoisolatorwithanexternalvoltagethoughtheinternal1Kresistor.Thisvoltagemaybe

intherangeof5VDCto24VDCsupplyingaminumumof2mAoramaximimof30mAtotheoptoisolatordiode.

Note:Ifusingavoltageabove12VDCforadigitalinput,youMUSTtusetheexternalresistorincludedinthepackaging.Pleaseseethe

wiringinstructionbelow.

ThetwoinputsarelabeledasIN1andIN2ontheNHMcover.EachinputhasaPCterminal,PisforpositiveandCforcommon.

AnoteofCAUTION:TheNHMunitsaregroundisolated.AlwaysconnectsothatpowerloopisonlyconnectedtotheNHMunit.

DoNOTuseexternalgroundconnections.DoingsomaydamagetheNHMorPOEoriginatingdevice.

3.Relayoutput

ThemetercanbeconfiguredtofollowoneoftherelayssuchthatwhentherelayisactivatedtheNHMwillcount.Therearetwo

removeable2positionconnectors(1foreachrelay)andaresimplynumbered"1"and"2"ontheNHM.Theserelaysarenormallyopen.
