Description
The existing DMM model (RUT-00412-DA) has reached his end-of-life and for that
reason we need to replace it with its successor RUT-02590-DA.
This technical bulletin describes how to replace the existing DMM module with the new
DMM. The new DMM needs 12V DC instead of 24V DC, so a power converter is
required (included in the replacement kit).
