B872-100 - Setting Module DIP-Switch
(Original Document)
Switch location and position
The four position DIP-switch is located on the rear of the module. This switch controls the state of each channel when the system is reset or stopped. The output to the channel can either remain at the last value (Hold) or go to 0.0 mA Return-To-Zero (RTZ).
Set the switch for either hold or RTZ prior to installation of the module. Each of the four switches control the mode of operation for its associated output (i.e., switch 1 for output 1, etc.).
Switch Settings
The following figure presents DIP switch settings for the B872-100 module. Also, refer to the label located on the left side of the module itself.
Set the switch to the left to select return-to-zero or to the right to select hold (viewing the rear of the module when held vertically). Channels are set independently.
NOTE: The output state after power-up initialization is dependent on the position of DIP-switch. Open circuit in the following table results in current 0 mA.
The following table represents the Relationship Between Power-up and DIP-Switch Settings.
