NOTE

By default, the LED indication refers to temperature measurements. This can be 
changed to relative humidity or TVOC / CO

eq values via Modbus Holding Register 

79 (see 

Table

 Holding registers 

below

).

Ambient light sensor

The measured light intensity in lux is available in Input Register 41. Additionally, 
an active and standby level can be defined in Holding registers 35 and 36. Input 
Register 42  indicates if the measured value is below standby level, above active 
level or in between both levels:

 

 Ambient light level < standby level: Input Register 42 indicates “Standby”.

 

 Ambient light level > active level:  Input Register 42 indicates “Active”. 

 

 Standby level < Ambient light level < Active level: Input Register 42 indicates “Low 
intensity”. 

VERIFICATION OF INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

After switching on the power supply one of the LEDs lights up according to the 
status of the measured variable. If this is not the case, check the connections.

Description

Data

Values

1

Temperature reading

signed int

Actual temperature level

-300—700 500 = 50,0°C

2

Temperature output 

value

unsigned int

Output value according to temperature 

0—1.000 0 = 0 % 

1.000 = 100 %

3

Temperature alert flag

unsigned int

Flag indicates that measured Temperature is 

outside set alert values. Set to '1' when the 

measured value is outside the Temperature alert 

values defined by holding registers 13 and 14

0—1 0 = Temperature measurement OK 

1 = Temperature measurement too low/high 

4

Temperature range 

limit flag

unsigned int

Flag indicates that measured temperature is 

outside set range limit values. Set to '1' when 

the measured temperature is outside limit range 

values defined by holding registers 11 and 12

0—1 0 = Temperature range OK 

1 = Temperature range too low/high  

5

Temperature sensor 

state

unsigned int

Flag that shows if the communication with 

temperature  sensor is lost

0—1 0 = OK 

1 = Fault

6—9

Reserved, return 0

10

Relative humidity level

unsigned int

Actual relative humidity level

0—1.000 1.000 = 100,0 % rH

11

Relative humidity 

output value

unsigned int

Output value according to relative humidity

0—1.000 0 = 0% 

1.000 = 100,0 % 

12

Relative humidity alert 

flag

unsigned int

Flag indicates that measured Relative humidity 

is outside set alert values. Set to '1' when the 

measured value is outside the Relative humidity 

alert values defined by holding registers 21 and 

22

0—1 0 = Relative humidity measurement OK 

1 = Relative humidity measurement too low/high 

13

Relative humidity range 

limit flag

unsigned int

Flag indicates that measured Relative humidity 

is outside set range limit values. Set to '1' when 

the measured Relative humidity is outside limit 

range values defined by holding registers 19 and 

20

0—1 0 = Relative humidity range OK  

1 = Relative humidity range too low/high  

14

Humidity sensor state

unsigned int

Flag that shows if the communication with 

 

humidity sensor is lost

0—1 0 = OK 

1 = Fault

15

Dew point level

signed int

Calculated dew point

-700—700 200 = 20,0°C
