Table 1 – Sensors and signals accepted by the module
Sampling rate: from 2.5 to 10 samples per second
Internal compensation of cold junction for thermocouples
Power: 10 to 35 Vdc / 50 mA maximum. Internal protection against
polarity inversion.
Electrical insulation between inputs and supply/serial port:
1000 Vac
Serial communication: RS485 at two wires, Modbus RTU protocol.
Configurable parameters: Communication speed: from 1200 to
115200 bps; Parity: even, odd or none
Key for restoring communication parameters: The RCom key, at
the front panel, will set the device in diagnostics mode (address
246, baud rate 1200, parity even, 1 stop bit), able to be detected
and configured by the DigiConfig software.
Frontal light indicators for communication and status:
TX:
Signalizes that the device is sending data on the
RS485 line;
RX:
Signalizes that the device is receiving data on the
RS485 line;
Status:
When the light is permanently on, this means that
the device is in normal operation; when the light is flashing in a
second interval (approximately), this means that the device is in
diagnostics mode; when the light is flashing fast, this means
that there is an internal error.
Electromagnetic compatibility: EN 61326:2000
Operating temperature: 0 to 70 °C
Operational relative humidity: 0 to 90% RH
Envelope of the terminals: Polyamide
Assembly: DIN 35 mm rail
Dimensions: Refer to Figure 3.
