The transfer function for the output power will be as follows: 
Pout = (I4-20mA – 4) (100% rated output power) / 16, with I4-20mA in mA 
Which sets 0W output power at 4mA and 100% rated power voltage at 20mA.

3.7  Remote Overvoltage Programming 
A  remote  DC  voltage  source  can  be  connected  externally  between  Pins  5 
(OVPRG_VSOUR) and Pin 18 (RTN_PRG) to set the output overvoltage trip level. A 
0-10  VDC  signal  equals  0-110%  of  rated  output  voltage.    See  Figure  3-107  for 
connection requirements. This full-scale programming voltage source range can be 
set to any value between 2V to 10VDC from front panel. Refer to Section 3.1.8.3.

3.8  Remote Output On/Off Control 
Remote output on/off control may be accomplished by contact closure, or through an 
opto-isolated interface with external voltage sources, AC/DC or TTL/CMOS.
