FAQ

Does ARTM-8 support Pt1000 sensors?

Yes. The sensor type (Pt100 or Pt1000) can be selected in system settings.

How many alarm relays does it have?

It has 2 relay outputs, each can be assigned to alarm 1 or alarm 2 of any channel.

What communication protocol does it use? Is baud rate adjustable?

It uses Modbus-RTU protocol with selectable baud rates: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200 bps

Can unused channels be disabled?

Yes. Each channel can be independently set to “ON” or “OFF” to block unused channels.

Which wiring method is recommended for sensors?

For best accuracy, a 3-wire Pt100 connection is recommended.

What power supply options are available?

It supports AC85~265V/DC100~350V or DC12-30V to suit various field requirements

How to set alarm hysteresis and delay?

In the “HyS” menu, you can set hysteresis (0–100) for alarm 1 and alarm 2, and alarm delay times (1–10).

What is the panel cutout size?

The panel cutout size is 152mm×76mm.
