CONNECTIONS
The pyrheliometer LPPYRHE16ACS has two outputs:
•
One 4…20 mA output, requiring 10…30 Vdc external power supply. It is to be
connected to a power supply and an instrument with 4…20 mA input as shown in
fig. 4.6. The load resistance of the instrument reading the signal must be
≤
500 Ω
.
•
One RS485 Modbus-RTU output, requiring 5…30 Vdc external power supply.
It is to be connected to a power supply and to a PLC, a data logger or a
RS485/USB or RS485/RS232 converter for PC as shown in fig. 4.5. The RS485
output is not isolated.
