With this option, a Form 3 instrument can switch power for control action in all types of open-loop or ON-OFF closed-loop operations.  It may be used, for example, to actuate alarms or sorting devices, or to start up or shut down external processes.  Both relay types are controlled directly by the unit's LIMIT VIOLATION outputs.

With the installation of an optional circuit board, real-time analog peak capture is possible for a Form 2 or Form 3 instrument, in addition to its normal "tracking" function.

Controlled either by front-panel push buttons or by a remote user-installed switch, a "P" unit can "freeze" and display the last positive input-signal "peak" value to have been perceived.  The analog output is held at this value until a RESET command is applied.  A subsequent higher signal excursion disables the "hold," permitting the capture of subsequent higher peaks.

With this option, a Form 1 or Form 2 instrument can furnish two independent galvanic outputs, each 0-10 VDC (2 mA maximum), full scale.  These outputs are completely isolated not only from each other but also from the 3000 instrument's "common."

The use of galvanically isolated outputs prevents ground-loop effects in interconnections with remote data-acquisition systems or controllers.  The presence of two independent outputs lets you send collected data to two different systems or devices, each with its own ground.

The Series 3000 meter has a standard power input connection of 105 – 135 VAC, 50-400 Hz, 9 Watts

Maximum for Form 3 units (with display and limit options). This standard input can be replaced with an “F” or a “B” option. In the case of the “F” option, the power input is 210-260 VAC. 

Operating in this mode, any 3000 Series instrument can transmit high-accuracy measurement data as process signals for supervisory monitoring and control.

Each "C" unit produces two kinds of analog output simultaneously: (1) its normal voltage output and (2) a current output continuously proportional to the voltage signal to within ±0.05%.

Maximum for Form 3 units (with display and limit options). This standard input can be replaced with an “F” or a “B” option. In the case of the “B” option, the power input is 11.5 to 15 Vdc, 500 ma maximum. When the “B” power option is used, the meter cannot have the “S” option installed.

An optional plug-in board provides a low voltage power option for the Series 2000 Meter. The “G” board replaces the standard power supply input and control card for applications that require battery powered or panel powersupplies.

For both the "D" and "E" options, serial communication are via a 4- or 6-conductor phone cable that plugs into a standard RJ-11 phone jack on the rear of the serial interface board  Both RS232 and RS485 interfaces are isolated from meter and power grounds.

The information transmitted via RS232 or RS485 includes the latest signal value (filtered or unfiltered), peak signal value, and alarm values and status.  Using the optional RS232 or RS485 interface, a 2000 Series meter can serve as a Remote Display for an external device or for another 2000 instrument.
