Refer to pages 4 - 5 for the details only. The card provides either 20 mA or 10 V signals. The output can be scaled on the specific models. The PAXC and PAXR offer only the Setpoint Option, independent of the input range and can track any of the counter or rate displays. while the PAXI is the fully featured version offering all the capabilities as Once the meters have been initially configured, the parameter list may be outlined in this bulletin. The optional plug-in output cards allow the opportunity locked out from further modification in its entirety or only the setpoint values to configure the meter for present applications, while providing easy upgrades can be made accessible. for future needs. The meters have been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. The meters employ a bright 0.56 LED display. The unit is available with a With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects to CE red sunlight readable or standard green LED display.
