All modules menoned in this document are compable with digital
panel meters PCE-DPD series (except mulinput panel meter PCE-
DPD-U). Dierent series dier in the number of digits, the digit height
and the number of output and control opons they can accept.
The output and control modules menoned in this document, are
covered by the warranty of the instrument where they are installed.
Check the user’s manual of the instrument for more informaon re-
lated to warranty.
The user’s manual of the instrument where the module is
installed, has important informaon related to installaon
that applies also to the output and control modules men-
oned in this document. Check the user’s manual of the
instrument for more informaon related to installaon precauons.
The output and control modules menoned in this docu-
ment are covered by the ‘CE declaraon of conformity’ of
the instrument where they are installed. Check the user’s
manual of the instrument for more informaon related to
the CE declaraon of conformity.
1.1 Read this rst
Digital panel meters from series M, K and S are designed following a
modular architecture that allows the operator to install any od the
output and control modules menoned in this document.
1.2 Modular architecture
1.3 Installaon and start-up
To install an oponal output and control module into a digital panel
meter from series PCE-DPD:
1. open the housing of the instrument (see secon 1.4)
2. install the module at slot Opt.1’, ‘Opt.2’ or ‘Opt.3’ as preferred and
close the instrument
3. close the housing of the instrument (see secon 1.4)
4. if needed, congure the appropriate jumpers at the module
5. connect the signal output terminals
6. congure the parameters at the ‘Conguraon menu’.
• modules PCE-DPD/R, T1 and SSR are congured from the alarms
menu of the instrument where the module has been installed
• other modules are congured from its own conguraon menu,
accessible from menu entries ‘Opt.1’, ‘Opt.2’ or ‘Opt.3’, depending
on the slot where the module has been installed.
