    One instrument must be configured as Master, all others as Slave. Through synchronization of the measurement voltages, faulty switch- ing due to crossover of measuring currents is avoided. A second relay can be ordered as an option for VEGATOR 131. The Function relay 2 (op- tional) function of the second relay is determined via this DIL switch. It can be configured as fail safe relay or as second level relay. When config-...
