Can your 5 dry contact sensor for the sensorProbe2 be configured as inputs and outputs?
No, the 5 Dry Contact Sensor can only be configured as inputs. The regular single RJ-45 Intelligent Dry Contact Sensor can be configured as both an input and output.
Can your single dry contact RJ-45 sensor measure voltage, or how does it work? Why does it show in my web interface as a security sensor?
Our RJ-45 single Dry Contact Sensor is a switch type sensor, so it does not measure voltage, it is either on or off. You can configure this as either an … Read More
Regarding your single dry contact RJ-45 sensor, when this is used as an output, the documentation says that Pin 2 (I/O) can source up to 20mA, so how much current can be taken from Pin 1 ? the 5V supply and how much current will Pin 2 sink?
We recommend 200mA of current can be taken from Pin 1 with the 5V supply. A: Pin 2 will sink 20mA of current.
Regarding your single dry contact RJ-45 sensor, can you please confirm the pin-out information for a dry contact that connects to one of the dry contact ports, also which pin supplies power (pin1, 5v,)?
Here is the pin-out for the dry contact sensor. The RJ-45 the combination is: White/orange, orange, white/green, blue, white/blue, green, white/brown, brown. On the sensor on the black wire: white/green … Read More
Can I connect a third party sensor using the 4-20mA sensor if it outputs more than 5 VDC?
Can I connect third party sensors with 4-20mA sensor? You can apply more than the 5VDC, but you need to be careful not to exceed the 20mA current. The 4-20mA … Read More
What is the accuracy of a 4-20mA converter?
The accuracy of our 4-20mA converters is 2%. The resolution of our 4-20mA converters is 0.1mA. You can use these figures in conjunction with your sensor?s accuracy to find the … Read More
I am sure that all settings for the Digital Voltmeter sensor are correct, but it seems to have error in the reading. How can I correct this error?
The Digital Voltmeter and 4-20mA sensors have an input as analog signal which will be converted to digital using an A/D converter. Normally, the A/D converter is calibrated in production … Read More
I just finished a calibration process, but the reading is still a little bit off. Is there any way to fine tune the reading?
In the calibration process, we set the offset of the reference voltage so that the raw analog read 500 when the input to the RJ45 port is 1.25 volts. However, … Read More
Do you have any sensor that is capable of reading the fluctuation of electricity, and send me reports?
How to monitor electricity fluctuations? We have a sensor that is capable of monitoring Voltage, Wattage and Amperage. This is our Power Meter Sensor. You can set alerts as with … Read More
