Operation and Setting Methods

Setting Ranges and Wiring Connections

Connections

1.

Input

Connect the input between terminals V1-COM, V2-COM, or V3-COM, depending on the input 

voltage.

Malfunctions may occur if the input is connected to unused terminals and the Unit will not operate 

correctly.

2.

Power Supply

Connect the power supply to terminals A1 and A2.

3.

Outputs

AL1 (SPDT relay) is output to terminals 11, 12, and 14.

AL2 (SPDT relay) is output to terminals 21, 22, and 24.

Note:

Use the recommended ferrules if using twisted wires.

DIP Switch Settings

The power ON lock time, resetting method and operating mode are set using the DIP switch located on the bottom of the Unit.

Setting Method

1.

Setting Voltage

The voltage knob (AL1 and AL2) is used to set the voltage.

The voltage can be set to 10% to 100% of the maximum setting range.

Turn the knob while there is an input to the input terminals until the alarm indicator flashes (when the set value and the input have reached the 

same level.)

Use this as a guide to set the voltage.

The maximum setting range will differ depending on the model and the input terminal.

Example: K8AK-VW3 Using Input Terminal V3-COM

The maximum setting range will be 600 VAC/VDC and the setting range will be 60 to 600 V.

2.

Operating Time

The operating time is set using the operating time knob (T).

The operating time can be set to between 0.1 and 30 s.

Turn the knob while there is an input to the input terminals until the alarm indicator flashes (when the set value and the input have reached the 

same level.)

Use this as a guide to set the operating time.

If the input exceeds (or drops lower than) the voltage set value, the alarm indicator will start flashing for the set period and then stay lit.
