2. ייַנמאָנטירונג און סעטאַפּ

Proper installation is crucial for the reliable operation of the PAXCDS20 card. Ensure all power is disconnected from the PAX meter before proceeding with installation.

2.1 גשמיות ינסטאַלירונג

מאַכט דיסקאַנעקשאַן: Turn off and disconnect all power to the PAX Series Meter.
צוטריט סלאָט: Locate the expansion slot on the rear or side of the PAX meter, as specified in the meter's primary manual.
אַרייַנלייגן קאָרט: Carefully align the PAXCDS20 card with the expansion slot connector. Gently push the card into the slot until it is fully seated. Avoid excessive force.
זיכערע קאַרטל: If applicable, use any provided screws or clips to secure the card in place within the meter housing.

2.2 עלעקטריקאַל קאַנעקשאַנז

The PAXCDS20 card provides four relay outputs. Refer to the wiring diagram in the PAX meter's main manual for specific terminal assignments.

רעלע אַוטפּוץ: Connect external devices (e.g., alarms, contactors, solenoids) to the appropriate relay output terminals. Ensure that the voltage and current ratings of the connected devices do not exceed the specifications of the PAXCDS20 relays.
Wiring Practices: Use appropriate wire gauges and follow all local electrical codes and safety regulations.

3. אָפּעראַציע

Once installed, the PAXCDS20 card's relay outputs are controlled by the setpoint configurations within the host PAX Series Meter. The card itself does not have user-configurable settings; all control is managed through the meter's programming.

3.1 Setpoint Configuration

Refer to the Red Lion PAX Series Meter's primary instruction manual for detailed instructions on configuring setpoints. This typically involves:

Accessing the meter's programming menu.
Defining the setpoint values (e.g., high limit, low limit).
Assigning each setpoint to a specific relay output on the PAXCDS20 card.
Configuring the relay action (e.g., normally open/closed, latching/non-latching, delay times).

3.2 Relay Output Functionality

When a configured setpoint condition is met by the PAX meter's input, the corresponding relay on the PAXCDS20 card will activate or deactivate according to its programmed logic. This action can then control the connected external device.

4. וישאַלט

The PAXCDS20 card is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection can help ensure continued performance.

וויסואַל דורכקוק: Periodically inspect the card and its connections for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose wiring.
רייניקונג: If necessary, gently clean the card using a soft, dry brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
