Protocol converter SDI-12

powerEthernetModbus

The SDI-12 converter translates the Modbus protocol used by TriOS sensors into SDI-12 and thus serves as an interface between the sensors and the SDI-12 interface of the peripherals. Due to its low standby power (< 20 mW) it is perfectly suited for operation with a battery as power supply. Four status LEDs inform the user continuously about the current operation mode and power supply. Both, measurements with G2 sensors and wiper cleaning cycles can be controlled via the converter. The implemented Ethernet interface allows data export and sensor configuration via the web interface. With three manual buttons Sensor Scan, Wiper Cleaning and Service Mode can be activated. The position of the rotary encoder determines the sensor address via which the sensor is addressed.
