Intended Use The module provides 2 passive current outputs for transmission of any desired process variables and 4 electronic relay outputs for limit monitoring. The OUT 3400X-071 module is intended for operation in locations subject to explosion hazards which require equipment of Group II, device category 2(1), gas/dust.
• In hazardous locations the device shall only be cleaned with a damp cloth to prevent electrostatic charging. Maintenance The Protos modules cannot be repaired by the user. For inquiries regarding module repair, please contact Knick Elektronische Messgeräte GmbH & Co. KG at www.knick.de.

Terminal Plate OUT 3400-071 Module Attaching the Terminal Plates The terminal plates of the lower modules can be sticked to the inner side of the door. This facilitates maintenance and service.
Installing the Module CAUTION! Electrostatic discharge (ESD). The modules' signal inputs are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Take measures to protect against ESD before inserting the module and wiring the inputs. Note: Strip the insulation from the wires using a suitable tool to prevent damage.

When using only one loop-powered supply and connecting more devices, make sure that the device potentials are properly isolated.
Parameter Setting CAUTION! Incorrect parameter setting, calibration or adjustment may result in incorrect measurements being recorded. Protos must therefore be commissioned by a system specialist, all its parameters must be set, and it must be fully adjusted. NOTICE! The "function check” (HOLD) mode is active during parameter setting. The behavior of the current outputs depends on the parameter setting, i.e., they may be frozen at the last measurement or set to a fixed value.
