Select Thermocouple or RTD Input
- Select & Scale a Voltage Input
- Select & Scale a 4-20 mA Input
Note: To accept a 4-20 mA input, a resistor must be connected across the inputs, and the controller set Up for a voltage input. For this example, we assume a 100Ω resistor, and the 0.4 to 2.0 VDC input range is used. An alternative is a 250 Ω resistor with the the 1 to 5 VDC input range.
- Press and hold Set/Ent for 3 seconds to enter the setup menu.

- Press Set/Ent to enter the lockout password (the default is 0).
- Press Down to access (Input Group).
- press Set/Ent to access parameter (Input Type).
- Press Up until selection is displayed.
- Press Set/Ent to accept the 0.4 to 2.0 VDC input range.
- Press Set/Ent 3 times to access parameter (Decimal Point).
- Enter the digit location for the decimal point to display in the scaled value.
