WARRANTY This product is covered by APG’s warranty to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service of the product for 24 months. For a full explanation of our warranty, please visit https://www.apgsensors.com/resources/warranty-certifications/warranty-returns/.
+9-28 VDC required by the modbus series PT-400/405. 120 Ω terminating resistor at last sensor IMPORTANT: Some manufacturer’s Modbus equipment uses reversed TX+/TX– pins. When making connections between APG equipment, reversing connections may be necessary if sensor does not communicate with controller.
Modbus Programming with RST–6001 and APG Modbus Software APG RST–6001 Modbus Controller can be used in tandem with APG Modbus to program and control up to 20 sensors. Through APG Modbus, you can monitor the raw readings from the sensor, including level or pressure, temperature and battery voltage, or configure the sensor.
