SHUNT RELEASE DETECTION
A shunt disconnection detection function can be activated by the DIP-switch settings. It
applies to the most sensitive inputs, which lead to terminals M2 and M3. When this
function is enabled, shunt release is detected as a positive saturation of the input and is
interpreted as a fault.
The event is signalled visually by rapid flashing of the LED (see section: LED Indications
on the frontal panel) and the output is taken to fault condition (to the value of the set

SETTING OF THE DIP-SWITCHES
Factory setting
All the module DIP switches are at position 0 as defaut configuration.
This set corresponds to the following configuration :
Input Signal
Bipolar Input
50/60 Hz mains frequency Rejection
Input Filter
Shunt Detection
Output Signal
Over Range
It is understood that this configuration is valid only with all the DIP switches at position 0.
If also one Dip is moved, it is necessary to set all the other parameters as indicated on the
following tables.
Note: for all following tables:
The indication
indicates that the DIP-switch is set in Position 1 (ON).
No indication is provided when the DIP-switch is set in Position 0 (OFF).
