    4.7.2 Macro File Setup There may be times when you need to print more than the 30 character codes that are allowed in the custom transmit files (7.1 - 7.8). To do custom transmits larger than 30 character codes, the UMC600 provides eight “macro” files (7.9 to 7.16) that can be called in from the custom transmit files.

    Option 8 – Analog Output/Relay Option Option 8 only addresses the setup of the analog output section on the dual function circuit board. NOTE: Option 8 utilizes the KJN8924, a dual function circuit board mounted internally to the back plate of the indicator. It provides a four relay output for setpoint process control and a 4 - 20mA or 0 - 10 VDC analog output which is configured and trimmed for zero and span in similar fashion as the older option 2 analog output (KHD8924).
