Function

The RTD converter accepts 2-, 3-, 4-wire RTD signals (Pt100 ... Pt1000) and slide-wire sensors from the field. Ni100 through Ni1000 can also be
connected.
Open and short-circuit line faults are detected.
The intrinsically safe inputs are galvanically isolated from the bus and the power supply.
