M300EU GETTING STARTED
(Addendum to M300EU Manual - P/N 04145)
3.3.2. ANALOG OUTPUT Connections
The analog outputs for the M300EU are different from those of the M300E/EM. Unlike the M300E/EM which can
include options for measuring both O
2
and CO, the M300EU is a single gas analyzer (CO) and therefore does
not require the fully configurable version of the analog outputs. The following information replaces that found in
Section 3.1.2.2 of the M300E/EM Operators Manual (P/N 04288).
The M300EU is equipped with several analog output channels accessible through a connector on the back panel
of the instrument.
• Channels A1 and A2 output a signal that is proportional to the CO concentration of the sample gas.
• The default analog output voltage setting of these channels is 0 to 5 VDC with a reporting range of 0
to 500 ppb.
• An optional Current Loop output is available for each.
• The output labeled A4 is special. It can be set by the user to output any one a variety of diagnostic test
functions.
• The default analog output voltage setting of these channels is also 0 to 5 VDC.
• See Section 6.2.2 for a list of available functions.
• There is NO optional Current Loop output is available for Channel A4.
The following table lists the default settings for each of these channels.

Optional current loop outputs are available for analog output channels A1& A2.
To access these signals attach a strip chart recorder and/or data-logger to the appropriate analog output
connections on the rear panel of the analyzer. Pin-outs for the analog output connector are:
