The module is designed to be installed, in vertical position, on DIN 46277 rail. For the best
module performance and long life, avoid to place cables raceways and other objects that
could obstruct ventilation slits.
Never install the modules near heat sources. We suggest to install the module in the bottom of
the control panel.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
One max 2.5A fuse must be installed near the module.

MI003471-E ENGLISH 5/8
SELECTION: INPUT / MEASURING SCALE
The type of input is selected by setting the SW1 DIP-Switches group at the side of the
module.
Each type of input is matched with a number of beginnings scale (START) and full scale
(END) selectables with the SW2 DIP-Switches group.
The frames above show the START or END values for every selected input.

Beware:
DIP-switches must be set

powered down, otherwise,
the module may be
damaged.
(*) START or END
are set in memory with the PC or
with a programming push buttons.
SETTING START AND END AT WILL
The START and END push-buttons under the SW2 DIP-switch group allow to set the beginning and end
scale at will within the scale pre-set through the dip-switches.
To obtain this facility it is necessary to use a suitable signal generator, able to furnish the desired values of
beginning and end scale.
The procedure is following:
1. Set to SW1 the type of input desired, set to SW2 a START and END measurement which include
the required beginning and end values.
2. Power up the module.
3. Supply a calibrator or simulator of the signal you wish to measure and re-transmit.
4. Set the required START value on the calibrator (or other instrument).
5. Press the START push-button for at least 3 sec.
The green LED on the front panel flashes to indicate the value has been stored.
6. Set the required END value on the calibrator (or other instrument)
7. Press the END push-button for at least 3 sec.
The green LED on the front panel flashes to indicate the value has been stored.
8. Cut power to the module and set to OFF position the dip-switches of group SW2,
Like in SW2 DIP frame: START and END values row n°1 (*).
The module is now configured for the required start and end scale.
To reprogram it (e.g. for a different type of input) repeat the whole procedure.
SELECTION: OUTPUT TYPE
SW2 DIP-switches group numbers 7 and 8 enable you to set the output mode: voltage or current and
the output mode: normal or reversed.
