thermoMETER TIM 8 / thermoIMAGER TIM 40

Each stackable industrial PIF must have its own RS485 address. The address must be set directly on
the board and in the software. For the PIF which is the furthest away the 120R switch (TERM.- Termina-
tion) has to be set.
The process interface has an integrated fail-safe mode. This allows to control conditions like interruption of
cables, shut-down of the software etc. and to give out these conditions as an alarm.
