RTD Probe and Interface
8.2.3 Setup
Connect the RTD-PROBE to the RTD-INTERFACE by screwing the probe end into the
connection on the RTD-INTERFACE, if a direct connection is required. The 2 m (6.6 feet) M12
extension cable (IO-RTD-M12EXT) can be used to extend the connection between the
RTD-INTERFACE and the RTD-PROBE. If using a compatible RTD not supplied by Druck, use
the M12 field wireable connector (IO-RTD-M12CON) to connect the RTD probe to the
RTD-INTERFACE. Note: The pin numbering is printed on the rear of the connector body.
With the supplied RS485 sensor cable, align the pin/slot arrangement at the female end of the
cable connector with the male connector end of the sensor. The cable connector should push in
slightly with little force when it is correctly aligned. Proceed to complete the connection by rotating
the swivel connector fully until hand tight. Similarly, align male end of the cable to the port on the
DPI 610E and tighten in the same way.
The DPI 610E automatically detects any connection to the RTD-INTERFACE. Upon successful
connection of a recognised and supported sensor, a “Connected” status indication appears for a
few seconds in the status bar. Also, the external sensor icon
will be permanently displayed
until the sensor is disconnected. When the sensor is disconnected, a “Disconnected” status
indication appear for a few seconds in the status bar and the external sensor icon will disappear.
