I. WHAT SIGNAL CONDITIONERS DO: The DRX Series Signal Conditioners are high performance devices used as a front end for PLC’s and Data Acquisition systems to measure a variety of low level transducer signals with high precision and accuracy. The DRX Series Signal Conditioners interface directly to transducers and digitize the input signal. The measured signal is then transmitted to a PLC or a computer using the RS485 Serial Communication. Up to 32 units may be connected to the same serial RS485

SAFETY NOTE: Disconnect all signal input and outputs before attempting this procedure. Instructions 1) Open the Signal Conditioner Unit—Remove Side Covers from Unit by lifting at the “angled corners” first, using a flat-head screwdriver. Continue detaching remaining edges of the Cover. 2) Short TP6 & TP17 together, either by wire or, if available, jumper S1-A. 3) After shorting TP6 to TP17, apply power to the unit. 4) The Front Panel Power Indicator (LED) will NOT turn on. 5) After power has b
