Note: The switch positions on pages eight and nine are the base programming con gurations, in the base con gurations all other switches
should be switched o . Once the base programming con guration has been set up you may wish to add additional programming features
and functions that are listed below.
DA = Full open, full ow, 10vdc output / Full closed, no ow, 2vdc output
RA = Full open, full ow, 2vdc output / Full closed, no ow 10vdc output
