5.6  Connecting the sensors

Various sensors can be connected to the PDU (e.g. a

 

temperature sensor, a combination sensor or a GPIO

 

module). The sensor used must be an original sensor

 

from Bachmann GmbH to guarantee communication 

with the software.

Personnel:

n

IT specialist

Insert the connector of the sensor into port S1 or S2 on the

PDU (Fig. 25/

).

5.7  Cascading the PDUs

Individual PDUs can be connected to each other with

the Modbus port. This way, up to 11 Slave PDUs can

be cascaded with one Master PDU and managed

using the web interface.

It is not possible to connect individual PDUs with a

crossover cable.
