Mini M135 Series Digital Panel Meter
Installation and Panel Cutout
No mounting hardware required, snaps right into panel!
Mounting Requirements
The Mini indicators require a panel cutout of 2.68 (68mm) wide by
0.88 (22mm) high, and a panel area of 0.945 (24mm) high by 2.84
(72mm) wide. The depth behind the panel, including terminals, is
0.7 (17.8mm). The front bezel protrudes 0.158 (4mm) from the
front of the mounting surface. The unit will snap-mount into panels
from 0.050 to 0.125 thick. A 12-pin connector with 6 wire leads is
included with each unit for quick installation.
Simpsons Mini DC Voltage Indicators provide high quality,
accuracy, and reliability in a compact 12mm deep case.
M135 has a 3-1/2 digit, 0.5 LCD display and is available
with a negative image, bright red backlight option. Mini
M135s feature user-selectable decimal point and display
hold.
Three power supply choices are available, and a low battery
indication is provided for 9VDC battery applications. Mini
units feature a standard 3/64 DIN high-impact plastic case.
The standard LCD units have a clear viewing window. The
units with optional negative image, bright red backlighting,
have a red window.

Safety Symbols
INPUTS: DC Voltage
These instruments are designed for maximum safety
to the operator when mounted in a panel according
to instructions. They are not to be used unmounted
or for exploratory measurements
in unknown circuits.
A reversed polarity power supply will permanently
damage this instrument.
IN HIGH and IN LOW must remain within the limits of
the power supply breakdown voltage.
No internal isolation is provided. Each meter requires
an isolated power supply. Supply voltage must also
be isolated from the circuit being measured.
A positive reading will be displayed when IN Hi is
more positive than IN Low.
Internal Reference: REFOUT must always be con-
nected to REFIN unless an external reference is
being used.
External Reference: Connect between REFIN and
ANALOG GROUND; REFOUT should then be uncon-
nected (open). For best results, external reference
voltage should be in the range of 50mV to 150mV.
System stability is then only as good as the external
reference.
Calibration
Model M135 has a limited range adjustment for cali-
bration. Apply the appropriate current input for a
near full scale reading, typically 1900 counts on the
display. The adjustment is accessed through the
exposed hole in the upper left corner of the rear
panel. For this adjustment to function, REFOUT must
be connected to REFIN.
Backlight Power Supply
A 2-pin connector is included with the unit if back-
lighting is specified. The right pin is the Positive, and
the left pin is for the Negative power supply. See the
Rear Connections diagram for location.

The WARNING sign denotes a hazard. It
calls attention to a procedure, practice, or
the like, which, if not correctly performed
or adhered to, could result in personal
injury.
The CAUTION sign denotes a hazard. It
calls attention to an operating procedure,
practice, or the like, which, if not correct-
ly adhered to could result in damage to or
destruction of part or all of the instrument.
