Sensors Powered Independently that Provide Either 12V, 5V or a
10mA DC Output Signal
1. Make sure power is not being applied to the unit.
2. Open the terminals in the sensor terminal block by turning each screw
counterclockwise until there is enough space to insert wires.
3. Strip off 2 ¼ inches of the sensor cable’s outer jacket.
4. Strip the insulation off each cable wire ¼ of an inch.
5. Feed the sensor cable through the small strain relief.
6. Insert the sensor’s DC common (or negative) output wire into the S IN-
terminal block and secure the wire by turning the terminal’s screw
clockwise.(Refer to the MX001 box or Figure 6 for the order of the terminals
for the sensor wires)
7. Insert and secure the sensor’s positive output wire to the
S IN+ terminal.
8. Secure the cable by turning the strain relief’s domed sealing nut clockwise
until tight.
9. Depending upon your sensor’s output, perform one of the following steps.
• For a 12V DC output signal, position the jumper on pins 1 and 2 of the
J1 (S SET UP) header. (Refer to Figure 7)
• For a 5V DC output signal, position the jumper on pins 3 and 4 of the
J1 (S SET UP) header. (Refer to Figure 7)
• For a 10mA DC output signal, position the jumper on pins 4 and 5 of
the J1 (S SET UP) header. (Refer to Figure 7)
