MPAX PERSONALITY MODULE SELECTOR GUIDE FOR LPAX
Our large displays have various input options, determined by the installation of a MPAX personality module. These MPAX
modules are based on standard PAX panel meters, and use the same data sheet as the PAX meter for specifications and wiring.
About the MPAX Input Modules
The MPAX Module serves as the input to the LPAX Display. There are several different modules to cover a variety of inputs. The
MPAX module provides input scaling which allows the LPAX to display most any engineering unit. Once the MPAX is inserted into
the LPAX, the unit has the same functions and capabilities of our PAX Series Intelligent Panel Meters. A full set of PAX
programming instructions will be included with the MPAX Module.
Note: The MPAX provides the operating power for the LPAX, therefore you must select either the AC or DC MPAX corresponding
with your application and available power.
Selecting Your Display Components
To build a complete display unit, you will need an LPAX and an MPAX Input Module. The LPAX is only a display and will not
operate without an MPAX Module. Please use the following chart to identify the appropriate MPAX Module (including supply
power) and LPAX Display that will satisfy your application.
