Page 5: Rs485 Interface
The RS485 interface allows you to connect several sensors to one terminal port (Pic. 1, 2). All MIELTA satellite terminals support the connection of up to 8 any sensors or peripherals on the RS485 bus. -
Page 6: Installation And Connection
When connecting several sensors at a distance less than 20 m from a tracker, the "star" scheme is recommended. This scheme does not require additional terminal resistors.. Picture No 2. Type "bus" connection scheme. The "bus" scheme connection is used to connect several sensors at distances up to 100 m. - Page 7 Picture No 3. Mounting dimensions of FLS. The central hole has a Ø25 mm diameter (Pic. 3). The mounting holes diameter is chosen based on the material of the fuel tank and the fixation method. Self-tapping screws are used to fix the sensor. When the sensor is mounted on a metal tank, It is drilled 4 holes with a diameter of 4-4.5 mm or It is used screws with a drill.
