▣Installations
◎ Mounting on DIN rail ◎ Communication system composition
◎ Connecting to ampli󹃋er unit
Mounting
① Insert bottom holder of
communication converter to 35mm
width DIN rail.
② Push the front part of the unit to
arrow direction to mount.
Detaching
① Side ampli󹃋er unit to ⓐ direction.
② Pull the assembly part to ⓑ direction
to detach.
ⓑ
ⓐ
① Remove the side cover at the connecting side.
② Connect the side connector to the units.
③ After mounting ampli󹃋er unit and communication unit on
DIN rail, push it to arrow direction tightly.
※In case of disconnecting, follow the upper sequence reversely.

③
Precautions when connecting amplifier unit
• Mount on DIN rail.
• Do not supply the power when adding ampli󹃋er unit.
• Supply power to each connected ampli󹃋er unit at the same
time.
• Up to 8 ampli󹃋er units can be connected, and only 1 calculation
function can be performed per 1 group of mutually connected
ampli󹃋ers.
• When the calculation function is activated, the setting values
(SV) of the slave units are disable and the mutual interference
prevention function for sensor heads is executed automatically.
Distinguishing master/slave amplifier units
• When the power cable direction is down, the ampli󹃋er at the
left end is the master unit, and the channel number of slaves
increases sequentially to the right.
Communication converter is connected to the left side of
master ampli󹃋er unit.

▣ Cautions during Use
1. Follow instructions in 'Cautions during Use'. Otherwise, it may
cause unexpected accidents.
2. Do not install where strong magnetic or electric field exist.
Otherwise, the resolution may be adversely affected.
3. Wire as short as possible and keep away from high voltage
lines or power lines, to prevent surge and inductive noise.
4. For the optimized performance, it is recommended to
measure after 30 minute from supplying power.
5. When detecting with the maximum sensitivity, an error may
occur depending on each characteristic deviation.
6. This unit may be used in the following environments.
①Indoors/Outdoors (in the environment condition rated in
'Specifications')
②Altitude max. 2,000m
③Pollution degree 2
④Installation category II
