-1 Option Wiring

The -1 option board is a module which allows external up and down push buttons to be wired to the
unit. These buttons operate exactly like the Up and Down buttons on the user interface. This module
is commonly used to allow PLCs or hand-held pendants to operate the front-panel remotely. Wires
for the external buttons are attached via a 3mm European terminal block on the -1 option board. The
buttons are activated by shorting the terminal labeled Com to either the Up or Down terminal.
MICROPROCESSOR
The DP4 digital potentiometer is a panel-mount digital-to-analog user interface. Put simply, it allows
the user to adjust the displayed value via push buttons on the front panel; and, outputs a proportional
signal according to its confi guration. It can be confi gured to work with both single and bidirectional
partner drives. It also supports both unipolar and bipolar output supplies.
The DP4 can display values in rate and time formats. In Rate mode, output units such as Gallons-
per-Minutes, RPM, and Percent are possible with just a few minor adjustments. In Time mode, output
units such as Hours:Minutes (HH:MM), Minutes:Seconds (MM:SS), and Seconds:Ticks (SS:TT) are
supported. In Time modes, the output will be inversely proportional to the displayed value in order to
represent a programmable process time.
See the application examples in this manual for additional information on how the DP4 can be
confi gured.
