surfaces are clean and undamaged. Tighten the cover screws hand tight using a suitably
sized screwdriver or a metric 8 mm A/F spanner / socket.

3.9 The 3000 series position monitor has the option for position feedback by the means of a
resistive signal (RS) or current signal (CS) transmitter.

The RS transmitter electrical ratings are - 1 K Ohms (standard) or 5 K or 10 K Ohms

(optional).
The CS transmitter electrical ratings are - current loop 4-20 mA at 18 to 24 V DC.
