•PULSE INPUT 1(4) RELAY: Any of the PQMII switch inputs can be assigned to count 
pulse inputs as shown in 5.3.4 Switch Inputs. This setpoint can be used to give an 
indication (alarm or control) if the programmed level is equaled or exceeded. Set this 
setpoint to “Off ” if the feature is not required. Selecting “Alarm” activates the alarm 
relay and displays an...
