WARNING DANGEROUS VOLTAGES, capable of causing death or serious injury, are present on the external terminals and inside the equip- ment. Use extreme caution and follow all safety rules when han- dling, testing or adjusting the equipment. However, these internal voltage levels are no greater than the voltages applied to the exter- nal terminals.

PRODUCT CAUTIONS Before attempting any test, calibration, or maintenance procedure, personnel must be completely familiar with the particular circuitry of this unit, and have an adequate understanding of field effect devices. If a component is found to be defective, always follow replacement procedures carefully to that assure safety features are maintained.
Layout of the M-6200A components are illustrated in Figure Do not position the M-6200A in a way that will make it difficult to operate the power disconnect device. The following is a brief summary of specifications that may be required for installation.

A switch or circuit breaker for the M-6200A's power shall be included in the building installation, and shall be in close proximity to the control and within easy reach of the operator, and shall be plainly marked as being the power disconnect device for the control.
All communication ports, data-logging, status monitoring, configuration, and setpoint capability are also maintained. Beckwith Electric offers two Control Power Backup supplies for use with the M-6200A. The M-2026 AC-DC Control Power Backup Supply is a fused, surge protected and reverse polarity protected AC-DC Control Power Supply that accepts an AC or DC input (21 to 32, 42 to 60 and 105 to 145 V) and outputs regulated +12 Vdc at up to 1.5 Amp.

The drag hand reset output (TB1-12) connection is commonly used to reset the drag hand on the regulator. When the Drag hand switch on the M-6200A is activated, this will cause the unit to output 120 V to TB1-12. This voltage can be used to energize the drag hand circuitry on the regulator.
TB1‑14 Load Current (+) CAUTIIO: ▲ The current input to the M-6200A is rated at 0.48 A continuous, and 4.0 A for 1 second. The line current input range is 0–640 mA (480 mA continuous) with 200 mA representing the 1.0 per-unit value. The measured current value is used for line drop compensation and metering calculation.
