16. Options
16.1 Communication software APT-COM™ 3 DataControlSystem (option)
The alternating climate chamber is regularly equipped with an Ethernet interface (10a) that can connect
the BINDER communication software APT-COM™ 3 DataControlSystem can be connected. The MAC
Address is indicated next to the Ethernet interface. The actual temperature and humidity values are given
at adjustable intervals. Programming can be performed graphically via PC. Up to 30 chambers with RS
422 interface can be cross-linked. For further information, please refer to the operating manual of the
BINDER communication software APT-COM™.
16.2 Interface RS 422 (option)
With this option, the chamber is equipped with a serial interface RS 422 (10b) instead of the Ethernet
interface (10a) that can connect the BINDER communication software APT-COM™ 3 DataControlSys-
tem. The actual temperature and humidity values are given at adjustable intervals. For further information,
please refer to the operating manual of the BINDER communication software APT-COM™.

16.3 Analog outputs for temperature and humidity (option)
With this option, the chamber is equipped with analogue outputs 4-20 mA for actual value and set-point
value of temperature and of humidity. These outputs allow transmitting data to external data registration
systems or devices.
The connection “analog outputs for temperature” is realized as a DIN socket (13) in the lateral control
panel as follows:
ANALOG OUTPUT TEMPERATURE 4-20 mA DC
PIN 1: Temperature actual value –
PIN 2: Temperature actual value +
PIN 4: Temperature set-point value –
PIN 5: Temperature set-point value +
MKF: Temperature range: -40 °C / -40°F up to +180 °C / -356°F
MKFT: Temperature range: -70 °C / -94°F up to +180 °C / -356°F
A suitable DIN plug is enclosed.

The connection “analog outputs for humidity” is carried out as a DIN socket (14) in the lateral control pan-
el as following:
ANALOG OUTPUT HUMIDITY 4-20 mA DC
PIN 1: Humidity actual value –
PIN 2: Humidity actual value +
PIN 4: Humidity set-point value –
PIN 5: Humidity set-point value +
Humidity range: 0 % r.H. up to 100 % r.H.
A suitable DIN plug is enclosed.
