Remote core processor with remote sensor installation (model code B or
E)
Figure 1-7:
The transmitter, core processor, and sensor are all mounted separately. The 4-wire connection between
the transmitter and core processor must be field wired. The 9-wire connection between the core processor
and the sensor must be field wired. Power supply and I/O must be field wired to the transmitter. This
configuration is sometimes called double-hop.

1.3 Maximum cable lengths between sensor and
transmitter
The maximum cable length between the sensor and transmitter that are separately
installed is determined by cable type.
