Page 10: Operation And Maintenance
Output The output is a current-sinking pulse (square wave) compatible with many controls in addition to the Seametrics indicators and transmitters. The most common of these are water treatment controllers and programmable logic controllers (PLC’s). For these units, it is sometimes necessary to provide a pull-up resistor if the controller does not provide for a current-sinking output. -
