Installation Guide

1. The 05701-A-0283 is factory-fitted to the control card — verify proper seating.
2. Connect the 4-20 mA sensor to the module terminals.
3. Verify sensor power supply voltage (24V DC nominal).
4. Perform span and zero calibration after sensor connection.
5. Confirm signal output matches sensor reading on the control card display.

Selection Tips

• Use 05701-A-0283 for 4-20 mA sensor types; use 05701-A-0284 for catalytic sensors.
• Verify sensor output type before ordering control card and drive module combination.
• Consider the 05701-A-0285 Analogue Output Module for external retransmission.
