    4 .2 .1 Mounting on T-section DIN-rail To install, tilt the MTL831C/MTL831C-PS to the left and hook to the left side of the standard 35mm DIN46277 T-section rail. Push to the right and allow the unit to rotate down to sit flat on the DIN Rail. Allow it to spring back to the left and the right side will hook to the DIN Rail.

    5 .1 Address Leaving these two pins (A, S) open, sets the address of the MTL831C/MTL831C- PS to “1” . A jumper on these two pins sets the address to “2” . Either is valid for a system with only one MTL831C/MTL831C-PS connected to the MTL838C. When two MTL831C/MTL831C-PSs are connected to a single MTL838C, they must be addressed uniquely.
  • Page 9: Electrical Connections

    Sensors connected to the MTL831C/MTL831C-PS should not be earthed. This avoids differences in earth potential that could affect measurement accuracy or damage the MTL831C/MTL831C-PS. If sensors must be earthed they should be POWER located close to each other to avoid differences in earth potential.

    The data highway connection is also the source of DC power for the MTL831C/ MTL831C-PS. It is important that the polarity of the wiring on the “+” and “-“ terminals is correct. A shielded twisted-pair wire is recommended. The “S” terminal is wired to the cable shield.

    Connect the data highway to a receiver for MTL831C/MTL831C-PS Transmitter #1 as in diagram below. Connect the MTL831C/MTL831C-PS Transmitter #1 data highway (+, S, and – terminal) to the equivalent terminals on a MTL831C/MTL831C- PS Transmitter #2. Install a jumper wire between the Address terminals (A and S) on MTL831C/MTL831C-PS Transmitter #2.

    Modbus. Note that the configuration data is actually held in the MTL838C for one or two MTL831C/MTL831C-PS Transmitters – depending on how many are connected. If an MTL831C/MTL831C-PS must be replaced for some reason, its configuration is automatically transmitted from the MTL838C to the MTL831C/MTL831C-PS when it is powered up.
