WIRING DETAIL Input/Output see Dwg # 02-131 All electrical wiring must be in accordance with all local state and national codes that apply. Do not exceed the rated current of the D.C. power supply (100MA) or the form ’C’ relay outputs (5A/240VAC resistive). CAUTION Hazardous voltages are present within the enclosure.
PROGRAMMING & SETUP The Myriad LC1 utilizes a ‘plain English’ menu driven setup screens which are intuitive and easily understood. From the default screen (Fig. 1), push the ‘Enter’ button to enter the password protected menus. Process Value CPU Status Relay Status Default...
