The DGH D5300M Modbus
ADC series four channel thermocouple input product line converts
up to four thermocouple signals to digital
information, linearizes the digital data and communicates the values to a host computer or
PLC. The linearized digital data values are user scaleable in either degrees C or
degrees F.
The
data values are transmitted to a host computer via an RS-232 or RS-485
serial communications link using either the DGH ASCII protocol or Modbus
RTU binary protocol. The protocol is user-selectable.
Because the Modbus RTU
protocol does not support echoing, the RS232 versions of D5300M series are
limited to one ADC per serial port. Applications requiring more than four
ADC channels should use RS485.
The
D5300M series modules can also be mounted on a DIN-Rail using the MK-1
mounting kit.
