Communication, standard Modbus RTU protocol. ## Easy Installation It adopts standard industrial installation dimensions and interfaces, and can be easily installed in control cabinets, instrument panels and other equipment. At the same time, it provides clear wiring identification and instructions to facilitate users to install and wire. ## Isolation Protection With electrical isolation function, it can effectively isolate the circuits on the RS485 side and the 4-20 mA side to prevent signal interference and equipment damage. The isolation voltage can usually reach severalthousand volts, which improves the reliability and safety of the system. ## High-precision Conversion The use of advanced signal processing technology and highprecision analog-to-digital / digital-to-analog conversion chips ensures the accuracy and stability of signal conversion. The output 4-20 mA signal has highlinearity and low error, which can meet the requirements of various precisioncontrol and measurement applications. Power supply, communication indicator light, parameter reset button. Hardware and software dual watchdogs, keep stable systems. ## **Technical Parameters** |**Supply voltage**|6V to 30V DC| |---|---| |**Supply current**|0.1 A| |**Communication**|RS485 (isolated)| |**Output current**|4 mA to 20 mA| |**Output channels**|1 road| |**Resolution**|12 bit, voltage: 1 mV, current: 1 µA| |**Accuracy**|± 1 %| |**Communication protocol**|Modbus RTU| |**Baud rate**|9600| |**Communication distance**|0 to 1200 meters, can be extended
