6.3 Open collector outputs (OUTPUT)
The meter is equipped with two NPN open collector outputs that may be set up for pulse
outputs, alarms, timed pulses, or turned off.
Pulse outputs are based on K-factor, total or grand total counts, or one-for-one retransmit
for input pulses. Both outputs may be used to generate a quadrature output based on any
pulse menu output type. An output test mode may be selected to generate pulses at a
constant programmable frequency.
Alarms are available based on the rate, total, or grand total. The alarm status appears on
the display even if the output is not wired. The outputs may also be forced on or off. A
timed pulse output generates constant pulses at a specified frequency and on time. The
output may be disabled by selecting Off.
