3. INTRODUCTION, RS232 OR RS485 SERIAL INPUT TRANSMITTER
The LTS6 seri l input to n log output tr nsmitter (or serial-to-analog converter) acce ts
numeric readings embedded in streaming RS232 or RS485 ASCII serial data, and converts
these to an isolated, scalable 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-10V or -10V to +10V analog out ut. The
LTS6 utilizes an LT counter transmitter board, but no signal conditioner board. The unit fits on
a 35 mm DIN rail and is only 22.5 mm (0.89") thick. It is normally owered by AC (85-264 Vac),
but can o tionally be owered by low voltage AC or DC, such as 24 Vdc. All electrical
connections are via detachable screw-clam lugs.
The current or volt ge tr nsmitter output is jum er selectable and is transformer isolated to
avoid ground loo s. Either out ut rovides 16-bit resolution of the out ut s an and is ultra-
linear to within one bit. The out ut is scaled to the serial in ut in software. Out ut accuracy is
±0.02% of s an.
Du l solid st te rel ys rated 120 mA at 140 Vac or 180 Vdc are standard. The relays can
res ond to the transmitted serial values or to transmitted control characters, which override the
internal set oints. The relays can also be controlled inde endently of the serial in ut by
a lying signals to control in uts 1 and 2.
Isol tion to 250V rms is rovided for ower, the serial data in ut, analog out ut, and relay
out uts. Isolation adds safety and avoids ossible ground loo s.
Seri l d t input selections are RS232, half-du lex RS485, or full-du lex RS485. Selection is
via jum ers and/or at the connector.
Tr nsmitter setup is via the unit’s serial ort using an external PC and Instrument Setu
software, which can be downloaded from our website at no charge. The required 3-wire
transmitter-to-PC interface RS232 cable (CBL04) is easy to build and is also available for
urchase.
The LTS6 is not plug nd pl y. The format of the strings being received must be known in
advance, including non- rinting control characters. If you do not know the format of your ASCII
data, contact tech su ort of the manufacturer of the sending device. Or use a terminal
emulator PC rogram, like HyperTermin l or Re lTerm, to view the received data on your PC.
The LTSE6 Ethernet input to n log output tr nsmitter acce ts streaming Ethernet data and
converts it to an isolated, scalable 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-10V or -10V to +10V analog out ut.
That transmitter is covered by a se arate user manual.

4. RECEIVING & UNPACKING YOUR TRANSMITTER
Your transmitter was carefully tested and ins ected rior to shi ment. Should the transmitter be
damaged in shi ment, notify the freight carrier immediately. In the event the transmitter is not
configured as ordered or is ino erable, return it to the lace of urchase for re air or re lacement.
Please include a detailed descri tion of the roblem.

5. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
W rning: Use of this transmitter in a manner other than s ecified may im air the rotection
of the device and subject the user to a hazard. Visually ins ect the unit for signs of damage. If the
unit is damaged, do not attem t to o erate.
C ution:
• This unit may be owered with AC (mains) from 85-264 Vac or 90-300 Vdc with the high
voltage ower su ly o tion, or 12-30 Vac or 10-48 Vdc with the low voltage ower su ly
o tion. Verify that the ro er ower o tion is installed for the ower to be used. This
transmitter has no AC (mains) switch. It will be in o eration as soon as ower is a lied.
• The 85-264 Vac or 90-300 Vdc mains connector (P1 Pins 1-3) is colored green to differentiate
it from other in ut and out ut connectors. The 12-30 Vac or 10-48 Vdc mains connector is
colored bl ck.
• The analog out ut is sourcing. Do not connect the 4-20 mA analog out ut to a load designed
to a ly 24 Vdc to a two-wire transmitter. A lying 24 Vdc will burn out the main board.
• To avoid dangers of electrocution and/or short circuit, do not attem t to o en the case while
the unit is under ower. However, signal wiring changes external to the case can be made
safely while the unit is under ower.
• To revent electrical or fire hazard, do not ex ose the transmitter to excessive moisture.
• Do not o erate the transmitter in the resence of flammable gases or fumes. Such an environ-
ment constitutes an ex losion hazard.
• Secure the transmitter to a 35 mm DIN rail.

WHEN TO CHANGE JUMPERS
Your transmitter case does not need to be o ened if jum ers have already been set by your
distributor. Otherwise you will need to o en the case and either set jum ers or verify that the
factory default jum ers ositions will meet your needs. Factory default jum er settings are for
RS232 in ut and 4-20 mA out ut.
HOW TO OPEN & CLOSE THE CASE
The two clamshell halves of the case are held together with a bolt and a nut at each of the four
corners. Use a Philli s screwdriver to remove the four bolts. The nut will then dro off, and the
clamshell halves will se arate. When closing the case, make sure that the ventilation grills are
ro erly aligned.
C ution: The nuts at each corner are not ca tive and are black. Take recautions
so that the nuts do not get lost.

8. PROGRAMMING YOUR TRANSMITTER
OVERVIEW
Serial in ut transmitters are rogrammed using a PC with an RS232 ort and Instrument Setu
(IS) software, which rovides a gra hical user interface. The software allows u loading, editing,
downloading and saving of setu data.
CONNECTING TO YOUR PC
Use a 3-wire RS232 cable (P/N CBL04) to connect your transmitter to the COM ort of your PC.
Download the file ISx_x_x.exe from our website and double-click on the file name. Click on
“Install Instrument Setu Software” and follow the rom ts. To launch IS software, ress on
Start => Programs => IS2 => Instrument Setu or on the deskto icon that you may have
created. Following a brief s lash screen, the Communications Setu screen will a ear.
ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATIONS
In the Communications Setu screen, select Custom ASCII as the Protocol, as this is the
factory default setting. Select Transmitter LT as the Device Ty e. Then click on the RS-232
(USB) button. In the resulting Establish Communications screen, select your Com Port and
