When the Analog Output parameter is set to “Serial Control”, the analog output(s) 
reflect a value in proportion to the serial value written to a specif ic register within the 
PQMII memory map. The locations are as described in the table below.

•ANALOG IN MAIN/ALT SELECT RELAY: Select the output relay that is to be used to 
multiplex two analog input signals to the PQMII. If this setpoint is “Off ”, the 
MAIN analog 
input setpoints will be used unless a switch input assigned to 
SELECT ANALOG INPUT is 
activated. For more information on multiplexing two analog inputs using one of the 
PQMII output relays, refer to 2.2.8 Switch Inputs (Optional).

disturbance are calculated. To end a Swell condition the level must decrease to pickup 
minus 10% of nominal of the 
SWELL LEVEL setting. This hysteresis is implemented to 
avoid nuisance alarms due to voltage fluctuations. If the duration logged was less 
then or equal to 1 minute an event with a swell type will be logged. If the duration was 
greater then 1 minute an event with an overvoltage type will be logged when this

5.4 S3 Output Relays
5.4.1 Description
Output relay operation in the PQMII occurs in either ‘failsafe’ or ‘non-failsafe’ modes, as 
def ined below:
•Non-failsafe: The relay coil is not energized in its non-active state. Loss of control 
power will cause the relay to remain in the non-active state. That is, a non-failsafe 
alarm relay will not cause an alarm on loss of control power. Contact conf iguration in 
the Wiring Diagrams is...

•AUXILIARY 1(3) OPERATION: If an output is required when the PQMII is not operational 
due to a loss of control power, select failsafe auxiliary operation, otherwise, choose 
non-failsafe.
•AUXILIARY 1(3) ACTIVATION: If an auxiliary relay output is only required while the 
selected conditions are present , select “Unlatched”. Once the selected condition 
disappears, the auxiliary relay returns to the non-active state. To ensure all...
