PLZ-4W Applied Operation 6-55
(2) External resistance control
Connecting an external resistance in the range of 0 Ω to 10 kΩ to the PLZ-4W pro-
duces a voltage that is proportional or inversely proportional to the change.
Proportional control
The voltage corresponding to the external resistance of 0 Ω is 0 V; the voltage corre-
sponding to the external resistance of 10 kΩ is 100 % of the specified range.
Inverse proportional control
The voltage corresponding to the external resistance of 10 kΩ is 0 V; the voltage
corresponding to the external resistance of 0 Ω is 100 % of the specified range.
Connected pins: J1-1 (signal), J1-3 (common)
