TXMINI-M12-485 / TXMINI-485 TRANSMITTER
OPERATING MANUAL – V1.0x I
INTRODUCTION
TxMini-M12-485
is a compact temperature transmitter with internal
connection to temperature sensors Pt100. It consists of an
electronic circuit encapsulated and a M12 connection for power
and RS485 communication, which includes the screw thread for
closing the sensor output.
You should use an RS485 interface with Modbus RTU commands
to configure the transmitter. The
DigiConfig
software for
Windows® allows you to configure all features of the transmitter as
well as its diagnosis, and the possibility of using other Supervisory
software for configuration and reading of the information provided
by the device.

When you use the transmitter with default configuration, none
intervention is required and its installation can be performed
immediately. When a change in the configuration parameters is
necessary, you can do it using
DigiConfig
software. You can
download the configuration software freely from the manufacturer's
website. To install it run the "
DigiConfigSetup.exe
" file and follow
the installer´s instructions.
