Quick Wire

You may "power up " the Series 1500 with the following operational check-out. This
procedure also prepares you for the Sample Program in Chapter 2. Or, you may skip
this section and the sample program, and go directly to Chapter 3, Installation and
Wiring.

1. Put the 1500 chassis back in its case. Then place the unit on a bench and
connect AC power lines and the jumper wires to the Power Supply terminal
strip. Use Figure 3 below.
2. As soon as you apply power, the FUNCTION display will alternately flash "A1-
C1, A1-C1." Press the CLEAR key to clear the flashing A1. The display will
then flash another A-code.
When you apply power without sensor inputs on the Signal Conditioner
terminal strip, the Series 1500 will show a flashing "A-digit" in the FUNCTION
display. The digit is an alarm code
steady dashes, "----," meaning "open sensor." These are normal displays for a
unit without sensors.
