Electrical – What kind of output is on this PID Controller

outputpid controllerrs232voltage

I have a Altec PC410 PID controller with 2 outputs purchased from eBay. However the exact model number is not known.

On top of the controller is a diagram showing how the 2 ouputs are different. Is it possible to identify what kind of outputs this unit has?

This PID controller will be used to drive an SSR.

It looks to me like OUT1 is a SPDT relay contact and OUT2 is a SPST relay output.

SPDT means single pole double throw i.e. a changeover relay contact

SPST means single pole signle throw i.e. a normally open relay contact.

Both relay contacts can be presumed to be able to work with a 250VAC AC connected load at up to 3 amps but, without the exact model number and technical manual this is still a bit of an assumption.
