For each output a scale control is available to adjust the scale of the output in question. It also limits the max. voltage. With the controls fully CCW the max. voltage is close to +12V. To limit the voltage to +5V the controls have to be adjusted to about position 4. I'm not familiar with the Model D but I don't think that voltages beyond +5V can damage the unit (without obligation).
