ADAM-4013
Pt or Ni RTD
Introduction Applications Specifications Ordering Information

Simple configuration, easy programming and supported by major DA & C packages - these are just a few reasons to use Advantech's ADAM 4000 modules.

Analog input modules use microprocessor-controlled high resolution 16-bit sigma-delta A/D converters to acquire sensor signals such as voltage, current, thermocouple or RTD. They then translate digital data into one of the following formats: engineering units, % of FSR, two's complement for Ohms. After the modules receive a request from the host, they send the data in the desired format over the RS-485 network.

ADAM analog input modules protect your equipment from ground loops by providing 500VDC isolation. All analog input modules feature digital inputs and outputs which may also be used for alarm and event counting.

ADAM-4013

Analog Input Module: RTD

Q. How do you calibrate an ADAM-4013?

A. Please do the following steps for calibration:

1. Execute ADAM.EXE

2. Search the ADAM-4013 module

3. Select Calibration item

4. Wiring should be:

Note: The AGND is ground reference that needs to be connected when applying IEXC for exciting the power source. It also provides a reference ground for the external power as exciting source.

5. Set offset calibration to R = 60 Ohms, and span calibration to R = 140 Ohms.

6. Connect a variable resistor, (200 Ohm) for testing.
